Teacher Gets Wounded in Student Stabbing at French School
"A teacher was the victim of a knife attack at a middle school in (the town of) Sanary-sur-Mer," Education Minister Edouard Geffray wrote on the US social media company X’s platform.
The victim, a 60-year-old female art instructor, was reportedly stabbed in the chest by the pupil while roughly 20 classmates looked on at La Guicharde secondary school.
These details emerged from media accounts that referenced information provided by local authorities.
According to Toulon public prosecutor Raphael Balland, preliminary findings suggest the student had recently experienced conflicts with the teacher and acted out of anger toward her.
Following the assault, the school premises were cleared, and reports indicated that classes scheduled for Wednesday were called off.
"My thoughts immediately go to the victim, her family and the entire educational community, whose deep shock I share," Geffray said.
