The editorialist of the Repubblica Concita De Gregorio, during Tuesday’s television broadcast of La7, hosted by Giovanni Floris, argues that the absence of teachers in the reopening of schools is due, according to the Minister of Education Azzolina and Prime Minister Conte, the advice given by unions to teachers to stay home for reasons of prudence and health.
Shocking words from the journalist De Gregorio
In the early afternoon, during the Tuesday transmission of La7, the journalist Concita De Gregorio called, on behalf of the driver Giovanni Floris, to respond to the statements of the leader of the Lega Salvini about the school that does not reopen, and about the serious incident occurred in Pisa, where a child fell. At the age of 6 they sent him home because there was no support teacher, creating a true casus belli with the school unions.
De Gregorio states: “I wanted to break the news that the school reopened this morning and almost eight million students were going to school, all regularly, so the statement that the school does not reopen does not seem to me to correspond to the truth … “immediately afterwards, referring to the great privilege he had for an interview that Minister Azzolina had granted him this summer, he says:” … actually there are no teachers because, as Minister Azzolina said and confirmed by the Prime Minister Conte, many teachers, even legitimately, accepted the suggestion of the unions (Conte spoke of blackmail by the unions about school) and for reasons of health or prudence they did not appear at school … “
For the sake of truth, one must be precise
For the record, it is useful to say that it is not true that the school has reopened its doors for almost 8 million students, in fact on September 14 the school is not distributed throughout the national territory, but only in some regions, while others will resume. school between September 22 and 24. Let’s say that just over 5 million students have resumed school, with next September 24, school will resume for about 8 million students.
Many chairs are still vacant because the planned recruitment of approximately 85,000 professors has resulted in just under 30,000 professors taking up the professorship, leaving approximately 50,000 vacant chairs in the autonomy staff. In addition to these vacant chairs, there are more than 80,000 seats in de facto and derogation staff and 50,000 additional chairs for the COVID-19 emergency.
All these chairs, plus the usual number of substitutes for leave, maternity and illness, are still covered due to the calls of the Gae and GPS that are being carried out these days.
Unions defined as troublemakers by national school policy leaders and even the government have nothing to do with all the vacancies that currently exist. Frankly, the political controversy, supported by the La Repubblica journalist during Tuesday’s broadcast, seems to us instrumental and aimed at further exacerbating the almost null relations between Minister Azzolina and the unions.
