French President Emmanuel Macron has pledged that his government will announce "concrete measures" to address the demands of student protesters calling for more resources in schools.

The announcement came after weeks of unrest across France, with students taking to the streets over conditions in the education system.

Prime Minister Sebastien Lecornu was scheduled to meet with student representatives on Monday, October 26, as the government sought to ease tensions.

The pledges came amid concerns over potential disorder during the Halloween period, with authorities closely monitoring the situation.
