The Italian government has proposed measures intended to limit the number of foreign pupils in individual classes. According to further information, the regulation already adopted also bans the wearing of face-covering veils in schools. svet.sme.sk ↗
The proposal has met with criticism from educators, trade unions and opposition parties. Its opponents warn that the rules may lead to an uneven distribution of pupils among schools, and to some children having to attend a school far from where they live. teraz.sk ↗
The government justifies the measure by its effort to adjust the conditions of education in classes with a high share of foreign pupils. However, the available information does not indicate what the exact limit is to be, or from what date the new rules are to apply.
The regulation also includes a ban on face veils in schools. Besides the composition of classes, the measure thus also affects the rules on how pupils dress during lessons.
The proposal's fate will be decided by how it is applied in schools and by the reaction of the political opposition, trade unions and the educational community. Critics will likely continue to point to the possible consequences for access to education and for pupils' everyday lives.
