Intonation of questions

Something I've been noticing throughout the lessons is that there does not seem to be a rise in intonation at the end of the questions in the French pronunciation (see example above in: "Vous ne devriez pas etre a l'ecole"). Instead, the intonation sounds more like a statement. Do the French not have an uplift in intonation at the end of spoken questions?

This question relates to:French lesson "Conjugate devoir in the conditional present in French = should (Le Conditionnel Présent)"
