Millions of pupils are returning to classrooms across France on Tuesday for the start of the new school year, with some schools forced to fall back on paper timetables and registers after a major cyberattack disrupted education systems over the summer.
Teachers returned to work on Monday to prepare for la rentrée – France’s annual back-to-school return after the summer holidays – but digital services remain restricted in parts of the country as students return Tuesday, following a data breach first detected in late July.
