The public education and reform that will be in the middle of the day when the Democratic Party is celebrating a year government Renzi. Despite some contestation of temporary teachers premier, guest of honor of the event in Rome dem “The school changing changing Italy” does not give up its slogans, optimism, confidence and tenacity, to revive the reform package on “Good School”. “I know that the experts have had enough and do not trust politics,” admits the audience of teachers and students, and that “the frustration of the announcements made” without concrete effects “leads teachers to not believe it,” but responsibility “is to restart Italy from school.”

Reform school, the next CDM launched a dl and a bill
“The reform of the school that we in mind, he says, is not just an administrative reorganization, is the idea that we want to Italy in thirty years. ” So the government, which this week is about to pass a law with urgent measures and a bill with measures broader, requires patience and confidence for a process that should be completed by the summer, “I hope that from here to September Parliament to be able to dismiss all the lyrics, “the prime minister added.

A system evaluation also for principals
The premier defends then one of the features of the reform, the overcoming of the old seniority with a new reward mechanism every three years . While understanding the criticism coming from the teachers, but stresses the importance of adopting an evaluation system that allows transparent audits also on the professionalism and expertise of the principals ‘E’ right to evaluate teachers and also those who have to evaluate them. We want a transparent system. ” “The criticism – he adds – must not come from union slogan but should be on the merits, things need to be addressed and discussed. I have much to learn from teachers who are on the field but there is also someone who is not up to the enormous task that has. ” Addressing the professors then Renzi says: “You have the task of educating the beautiful, says Luigi Berlinguer.”

In the future 5×1.000 also fund individual schools
> Looking ahead, referring to the problem of resources, Renzi announces the development of “a serious mechanism, modeled on the 5 x thousand, so in the tax return barro for individual school. A mechanism that is working for volunteering, where the demands are in `overbooking’, and which must be designed for the culture and the school.” In the future, added the premier, “ask autonomy even from economic point of view, so that a part of the tax return can go to a single school.”

Giannini: excited for reform coming
The opening, Education Minister Stefania Giannini who admits to being “a little ‘excited because days a decree to give body to this intense work we have done to the ministry, in the committees, with the girls the seventh as I call. The first year of government has also focused on school and above. We presented an educational project to Italy to pass from the school of `900 to the school of the third millennium. The first choice of the government Renzi was to start with a program that has put first education, and we are very proud of this political choice, cultural and social. “

Merit and evaluation” cornerstones “of the” Good School “
” The Good School “, the minister explained, is not a” plan assunzionale “but” an educational project, a coherent vision that has already moved forward to old paradigms decades. ” The “cornerstone” of the reform will be those of the “merit and evaluation. We broke a taboo: in one year the evaluation has become compulsory practice of all schools, after ten years of experimentation and boycotts. ” An evaluation system, according to Giannini, that “means improving schools for all students, and therefore it means removing the obstacles which prevent equality of educational opportunities.”

A regime assumptions only competition
Other vital cornerstone of reform, said the minister, is “the recruitment plan extraordinary and prediction of return to assume only through public competition. ” For too long, we are resigned to “the Babel of the rankings,” and the same has happened to the careers of teachers, that “impossible dream is about to become reality practicable ‘. In July, “schools will present a self-assessment report. And the fact that seniority will not disappear entirely in the decree – reminds the minister – does not mean that we have given up to measure and reward merit. “

European Standards for Language Competence teachers
Speaking of the weak points of our school system, Giannini cites the teaching of foreign languages ​​for which “we need teachers but also those who seek: therefore from competition that will be banned quest ‘year, the bar of language proficiency required of candidates will stand up to European standards. And in this way, the Italian school in a few years will have a generational oriented higher skills, in addition to the necessary rejuvenation. ”
