PARIS, Jan 13 (Reuters) - French Prime Minister Jean Castex will meet with French teachers union representatives later on Thursday, the Prime Minister's Office said.
The meeting comes as tens of thousands of French teachers walked off the job on Thursday over what they say is the government's failure to adopt a coherent policy for schools to manage the COVID-19 pandemic and protect pupils and staff against infection.
