What will the government decide? school? Will they stay open, will they be closed, or will they opt for a mixed solution? During the morning there was a meeting between the Minister of Education Lucia azzolina, the Minister of Regional Affairs Francesco Boccia and the Presidents of the Region, during which dissent seems to have arisen among the actors involved.

The line of the Ministry is to leave things as they are, also because, Azzolina recalled, the father in high school is already partly on the way. The directors agree with this line. Regions, on the other hand, are pushing for clearer directions.
Azzolina: In these hours there is an assault on the school
“In these hours there is an assault on the school and this can only damage the right to education”, Minister Azzolina said today in relation to Vincenzo De Luca’s decision to close all schools in Campania.

The school in presence is “essential for all, from the youngest to the last year of the second grade, ”the minister reiterated during today’s meeting, also recalling that distance education is already partially active for upper secondary schools.
To solve the criticalities of transport, added Azzolina, “let’s not look only at schools and universities,” because these sectors, unlike others, “have already contributed to decongesting transport.” The owner of via Trastevere also reiterated that the extraordinary contest it will take place on the scheduled date of October 22, without delay.
The school, the regions ask for clear rules
On the other hand, the Regions continued to call for distance education at least for secondary schools, complaining to the Government about the absence of “clear and immediate rules.”
The President of the Conference of the Regions and of Emilia Romagna Stefano bonaccini He said the government was asked for “a precise indication in the Dpcm” about the father. The President of Liguria Giovanni toti He spoke of “unfinished tables” to the Ministry and called for “more distance education in rotation for children in recent years.”
Even the Lombard governor Attilio fontana He proposed “alternating distance lessons and staggering the time of entry to school.”
De Luca, at the center of a tough battle with the Minister of Education, took a step back yesterday by ordering the reopening of kindergartens and preschools.
Boccia, reasonable proposals from the Regions
“We need unity and responsibility”, declared Minister Boccia on the subject, praising the “great collaboration of the Regions and local authorities”.
For Boccia, the proposals of the territories “on schools, universities and transport” are “common sense and go in the direction desired by all of us to protect as much as possible the health, school and university activities and the functioning of our cities.”
