transmission on the school Sunday, February 14 on Rai Tre has highlighted some very negative aspects of the educational policy of this country in serious decline. Democratic
School, a free association of teachers for public schools, secular and pluralist policies for years denounced the "scientifically" designed to degradation of the Italian education system.
Among the topics covered in the transmission above, on this occasion we want to dwell in particular on policies for the "right to study" undertaken by Region Lombardia.
Lombardy regional government, led by Roberto Formigoni, CL and PDL, covered by the system of so-called 'good school. " In essence it is this:
1. To families who enroll their children to public school is paid a contribution on the basis of the submission of the ISEE, the equivalent economic situation indicator, which takes into account income, assets (movable and immovable) and the characteristics of a family (by number and type): upper limit of about € 15,000;
2. To families who enroll their children in private school is paid an equal contribution on the basis of the presentation of self that takes into account only income and heritage: a maximum of approximately € 46,000, triple the limit ISEE.
In our opinion, ignoring the comments you are saying, this system is used primarily to encourage enrollment in private schools than public schools equal.
must also take into account the fact that where there are private schools that host peer certain fields of study, you can not open similar addresses in public schools.
What are the consequences of all this:
1. Students in a city where it exists, for example, a private language school and who want to enroll in a public high school language should either agree to attend the private school or to several kilometers to be eligible to attend public school. Strange way to ensure the right to study!
2. Private schools take equal teachers not on the basis of rankings which take into account the merits, regarding family members, age, etc.. But only on the basis of knowledge of family relationships, kinship, ideological affiliations, friendships. This system reminds the reader that an adjective will definitely be able to guess. But above all, the more we strengthen private schools, as the junta Formigoni, the more teachers will be hired with the system described above and the more jobs will be subtracted to all those teachers who have acquired rights in the school pubblica e che possono contare solo sulle loro capacità, spesso notevoli, ma non su parentele, conoscenze e amicizie. Anche questo è un ottimo modo per tutelare i diritti dei cittadini!
3. Le scuole private paritarie non sono obbligate ad accogliere studenti diversamente abili e non accolgono di norma studenti stranieri: si troverebbero a disagio nel mondo della borghesia medio-alta lombarda, dove si organizzano a scuola certi tipi di feste, ci si abbiglia in un certo modo, ecc. (così in Tv una preside di istituto paritario!).
4. I fondi erogati dalla Regione Lombardia sono denaro pubblico, denaro dei cittadini, che viene dirottato preferibilmente a favore di alcuni cittadini privilegiati che dispongono già di un reddito medio-alto. We recall that under Article 33 of the Constitution of the Italian Republic, "Public and private persons have the right to establish schools and educational establishments at no cost to the State," that is no cost to the citizens (the state are citizens) in Basically, those who want to enroll a child in a private school if their pay with their money, not with those of others.
5. According to the report Eurispes 2010, the movement of students from public schools to private schools produce a lower overall quality of education and contributes to the overall decline of the country, "immobile, devoid of ideas and projects." Sums up the situation, the article of La Repubblica, 29 January 2010: «Scuole meno complicate per sfuggire al recupero dei debiti. I giovani italiani “fuggono i licei pubblici” e si dirigono nelle scuole private, istituti “più facili da cui uscire più in fretta”. A preferire le non-statali sono infatti gli alunni rimandati nelle scuole superiori. Cade anche il mito della scuola “privata e quindi costosa” perché - spiega il rapporto - oltre ai contributi statali, le scuole private ricevono spesso dei contributi erogati singolarmente dalle regioni e dalle amministrazioni locali. Ciò renderebbe meno onerose le somme di denaro richieste ai genitori per iscrivere i propri figli nelle scuole non statali e ne facilitano, quindi, l’ingresso».
Per concludere, dato we get closer to the regional elections, we make an appeal to citizens to think carefully, even and especially during the vote on anti-democratic consequences of a system based solely on the maintenance and reinforcement of privilege, on the abuse of rights, the reaffirmation of a feudal system disguised as a modernization, but the result is the total retreat of society, the destruction of the rule of law, the demolition of the res publica, the degeneration of social relations and all the worst thing imaginable for the future of ' Italy and the younger generations in particular (except, of course, those who belong to 'families').
