TURIN. Six months after the start of the pandemic, the 270,000 students from the schools of Turin and its province return to classes en masse this morning after the first laps in recent days. Everywhere masks, gels, open windows, collection of self-declarations on temperature and, in a good number of schools, also detection with thermocanner (in Itis Grassi with columns). Not everyone actually returns, because a significant percentage of the first day will still experience it at a distance, as in the confinement. In secondary schools, where integrated teaching is provided, in many cases the institutes do not have enough space to accommodate everyone and therefore we will continue with rotating distance learning in direct connection with the class.
From home, for example, about fifty children of the classic D’Azeglio, the three-year period of the classic Gioberti high school, will start, half of Einstein’s population. Starting tomorrow, a third of Sommeiller and Galileo Ferraris’s three-year-olds will follow the lessons from home. For today, the scientific institute of Corso Montevecchio (1600 students) has organized a complex system of rotations in order to welcome all the complete classes for a first greeting for a couple of hours.
All but one, who will be connected: yesterday came the news that two students tested positive after a soccer game in which several colleagues participated. “For this class we have activated distance learning as a precautionary measure, to give the ASL time to inform and guarantee safety conditions”, explains the director Giuseppe Inzerillo, in Galfer since September 1 after a few years leading the classic. Alfieri. And he adds: «The school does everything possible to guarantee the safety and speed of the parents in the complaint was commendable. However, there are fears for this year. Fears, according to managers, shared.
At home one day a week, but without synchronized lessons. It is the SOS launched with a letter from students and parents of the Volta high school, where, says Elia Mengozzi, representative in the student council “dozens of children will be at home every day without lessons because the network is not enough to connect.” Executive Maurizia Basili responds: “We have to wait for the Covid staff. If we have it, for the 49 layoffs we will make adjustments and a composite class that will stay in the conference room. We have a synchronous and asynchronous integrated digital teaching plan: it will be more useful than spending six consecutive hours in front of the PC ».
Regarding the appointments of teachers, yesterday the director of the Regional Office for Schools, Fabrizio Manca, explained that “we started with about twenty thousand chairs to be filled in Piedmont. We hope to complete the template by the end of the month. In the province of Turin 7000 substitutes are missing, the schools will summon about 1500 temporary workers with the resources of Covid staff. Meanwhile, the appointment calendar has been released, starting tomorrow with support on the webex platform. –
