What are the reasons for the May 1968 crisis and the resignation of Charles de Gaulle?

The educational system of the time had long demanded a reformation, which contributed to student unrest. In the spring of 1968, they took to the streets to demand more scholarships and reform the university system. After the protesting students were beaten by the police, the workers arrived with their demands. Charles de Gaulle all this time promised to reform the system, however, he did not carry out any specific actions in this direction. Ultimately, the situation in the country escalated, and De Gaulle was forced to resign.
