School: stop on school trips for the moment. This is what the new DPCM, signed by Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte and Minister of Health Roberto Speranza, offers during the night and which will come into effect from tomorrow and it will be for 30 days.
Therefore, at the center of the new text is also the school, in addition to the other measures implemented to counter the Covid emergency and avoid the worst. Not only educational travel stop because the new DPCM foresees restrictive measures also for bars and restaurants, as it is strong, and also foresees in the decree of October 7, the obligation to wear a mask even outdoors.
For the central school are school trips, with the stop intended to limit the movement of peopleBut if, on the one hand, smart work is strongly recommended in the private sector and strengthened in the public sector, there is only one proposal to return to distance education in high school, a proposal that at the moment does not seem to have been followed.
Let’s see what the new DPCM says in detail about stopping school trips and other news for the school.
Stop off for school trips at the new DPCM
In the new DPCM, school trips come to a halt as can be clearly read in the text published on the website of the Presidency of the Council of Ministers and which is registered in the Official Gazette. The decree signed by Conte and Speranza establishes that:
“Educational trips are suspended, he exchange or twinning initiatives, guided visits and educational outings whatever their name, programmed by educational institutions of all levels, without prejudice to the activities related to the itineraries of transversal competences and orientation, as well as the internship activities referred to in the decree of the Minister of ‘education, university and research September 10, 2010, n. 249, to be carried out in cases where it is possible to ensure compliance with current health and safety requirements “.
The interruption of school trips or twinning and exchange initiatives does not provide a time limit from the moment and must remain in effect for 30 days, subject to subsequent provisions. They would still remain practicable the internship activity ei paths for transversal competences (the alternation between school and work is clear), but with the recommendation that they be carried out in cases where security measures can be guaranteed prescribed by the authorities.
If on the one hand comes the stop of school trips to school, the text clearly says that the college meetings of any order and degree, it can be performed in the presence or even at a distance, but always respecting the physical distance between people.
What changes for universities with the new DPCM
Not just school trips because the new DPCM also finds space college. For the activities of Italian universities does not change much, since until now the guidelines of the Ministry of University and Research adopted have been applied; the same happens with institutions of musical training and higher dance.
It is established that in cases where students not participate in educational or curricular activities universities and institutions of high artistic, musical and dance training, the same can be done remotely, attending to the needs of students with disability.
The universities “It should be ensured when deemed necessary and in any case by identifying the relative methods, the Recovery training activities, as well as curricular activities, or any other test or verification, even intermediate, that are functional for the completion of the didactic path; the absences accumulated by the students referred to in this letter are not counted for the purposes of admission to final exams or for the purposes of the corresponding evaluations “.
As for distance education, but in schools, some regional presidents had proposed to restore it only in secondary schools. At the moment this proposal has been rejected and is not part of the DPCM, but it cannot be ruled out that the issue may be raised again in the future.
