"All state services will be mobilised to take care of these children and the staff who witnessed this awful tragedy," Mr Hollande said in a statement.

"When I arrived at the scene they were trying to revive her", he said. "She was in cardiac arrest in her classroom".

She is alleged to have shouted "I am not a thief" before the stabbing, media reports said.
The pupils who witnessed the attack, reported to be between five and six years old, are receiving counselling.
