(Radio France) Teachers at the Gambetta-Carnot school in Arras in northern France had twice reported Mohammed Mogouchkov to authorities when he was a student there. But he remained at the school and graduated, and on 13 October he stabbed to death a teacher, claiming allegiance to the Islamic State armed group. The education minister has since called for radicalised students like him to be removed from schools.
After the commemorations at schools across France on 16 October to honour Dominique Bernard, who was murdered in Arras, and Samuel Paty who was beheaded in a terrorist attack in front of his school three years earlier, middle and high school directors have reported about “500 disruptions and protests,” according to Education Minister Gabriel Attal.
