Back to class, Azzolina: students and teachers can keep a mask even if there is a meter away

The Minister of Education, Lucia Azzolina, intervenes during a live Facebook organized by Corriere della Sera. This is what the owner of the department of Viale Trastevere said: “Nobody forbids the boy, if he wants to keep the mask in class, to keep it. We are the only country in the world to deliver masks to kids. We said something different: if there is a meter away, while seated, the boy can lower it, but if he wants to keep it in class too “.

“If there is a distance, one meter away the mask can be lowered, but if the boy or girl is afraid he can keep it even if there is a meter away – added Azzolina – and even the teacher in the classroom if he is two meters away from the students can remove the mask, otherwise he has to keep it for example if he gets up and goes around among the desks he has to keep it “.

On distance learning he states that: “The school was not completely ready, we found realities further ahead than others. In these twenty months more has been done than in previous years ”.

It’s still: “We have to reinvent ourselves, the first day of school will be a different day given the pandemic that hit us, it will be the day of hope and courage. Some fears will be put aside, I’m sure. The school will react well. The students have great enthusiasm and want to go back to school. I have received poems and videos from young people who express their enthusiasm ”.

On frail students: “We have written an ordinance for frail students that is being examined by the higher education institution and we have provided distance learning for frail students.” And also for a cold “if the school is prepared and the tools, why not? I believe that the school wants and must include as much as possible ”.

Then: “We can’t imagine that the school is exactly like last year. The important thing right now is to go back to the classroom. We will have to give up a little something but even in past years it was not a perfect school ”.

“Nobody denies small problems but we are solving them in a very difficult period. There will be recruitments and the competition will take place in October. There are many joints, it is a very complex puzzle, but each piece
he is going to his place and, at this moment, I can only say thank you to the school staff ”.

Finally on the temperature to be measured at school: “Already on June 26 it was said that the temperature had to be taken at home, and it was not said by chance. The CTS of the Ministry of Health explained why the measurement must be taken at home and it is trivial to understand it, if I have a boy with a fever I do not let him get on the bus risking a vector of contagion, but I protect him and I also protect others children and anyone keeping it at home first “.

“Those guidelines have been approved by all regions, including Piedmont, and on those guidelines the school leaders and all school staff have given information to families – Azzolina underlined – there have been two and a half months of regional discussions on the school so that ordinance written on 9 September appears untimely and inappropriate ”.

“We have given clear rules, if a single regional president decides to make his ordinance, the government is talking to that regional president right now. We must think about families before politics, we need a dialogue before the rules already established two and a half months ago are changed on Monday, throwing families into chaosle. Challenging? In these hours, I repeat, discussions are underway with President Cirio, we will see, there must be a response on the appeal “, concluded Azzolina.
