The attacker shouted “Allahu Akbar“, or “God is greatest“, during the attack, police told the AFP news agency.
The attacker is believed to be in his 20s.
French channel BFMTV has reported that the brother of the attacker has also been apprehended by police.
The channel said the person killed was a French language teacher, while a sports teacher was also stabbed and injured.

Police say the situation is now under control.
French President Emmanuel Macron will visit the school later on Friday.
The school attacker was of Chechen origin and on the national security register, according to the police.
