The Minister of Education, Jean-Michel Blanquer, announced Friday that in the 19 departments concerned by the regional reconfinement, a single case of Covid in a class would now lead to its closure, against three cases previously.

"This will necessarily mean more class closures in the coming days for those who are concerned," he admitted, adding that this would concern "all school levels", from kindergarten to high school.
