During a visit to Daniel Argote middle school in Orthez, France's southwest, Emmanuel Macron announces measures aimed at improving sport in schools. The French president promised 5,000 more sport pitches in schools by 2026, more opportunities for students to pursue professional sport, plus half an hour of physical exercise for primary school pupils. "I think that sport, which is very important, is that it teaches rules, a certain discipline, respect for the opponent," he said. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
