After a long wait, the Premier Conte has signed the new Dpcm. The text will be in the Gazzetta this morning, November 4th.
The decree will come into force on Thursday 5 November and will be effective until 3 December.
While waiting to read the final text, we summarize the main anticipations of interest for schools.
—-
Obligation of a mask in elementary and middle school
The mask Sara mandatory in elementary and middle schools, even in static conditions, so children and teenagers will have to wear it even sitting at the counter.
However, they always remain excluding children under the age of six e i subjects with pathologies or disabilities incompatible with the use of the mask.
Presence activities for children and primary schools
The didactic and educational activity for the first cycle of education and for childcare services continues to take place face to face, except for Regions included in the cd. red zone (scenario of maximum severity and high risk level) in which the face-to-face lessons will take place up to the first grade of lower secondary school. The DaD then becomes 100% for second and third grade, as well as for the five years of high school. In the red zone, according to the first previews, Lombardy, Piedmont and Calabria, and perhaps Alto Adige and Valle d’Aosta should certainly fall.
Travel restrictions
In the Regions belonging to the area the maximum risk will be any movement in and out, as well as within the same territories, is prohibited, except for movements motivated by proven work needs or situations of necessity or for health reasons. In any case, the movements strictly necessary to ensure the conduct of teaching in presence are allowed within the limits n which it is permitted. You will be allowed to return to your home, home or residence.
A “curfew” from 10pm to 5am was confirmed throughout Italy, unless there are justified reasons.
The DPCM should come into force on Thursday 5th November and be effective until 3rd December.
In the cd. red areas, ie the Regions with a scenario of maximum severity and high risk level, the face-to-face lessons will take place up to the first grade of lower secondary school. The DaD then becomes 100% for second and third grade, as well as for the five years of high school.
In the red zone, according to the first advances, Lombardy, Piedmont and Calabria should certainly fall, and probably also Alto Adige and Valle d’Aosta.
Again with regard to schools, in the so-called areas. orange and green didactic and educational activities for the first cycle of education and for childcare services continues to take place face to face.
Extraordinary competition at risk?
From the latest rumors on the draft of the Dpcm, it appears that they would be all public competitions suspended for the entire duration of the decree (until December 3) The question arises: what will become of the extraordinary secondary school competition?
The draft of the new Dpcm reports: The “suspension of the performance of the pre-selection and written tests of public and private competition procedures and of those for qualification to exercise the professions, with the exception of cases in which the evaluation of candidates is carried out exclusively on curricular basis or electronically or in which the commission he deems to proceed with the correction of the written tests with remote connection, as well as excluding the competitions for health personnel, including, where required, the state exams and qualification exams to practice the profession of surgeon and those for staff of civil protection“.
On the basis of what is written on this draft, the extraordinary contest it should stop and then resume at the expiry of the Dpcm, after 3 December.
It is clear that the conditional is a must: it is necessary to wait for the definitive text of the new Dpcm to understand if the competition will really be suspended.
In any case, we believe that it would be a temporary suspension, in the sense that candidates who have already taken the exams should not have any problems, while those who have not yet taken the competition test should only “move the commitment “.
It is evident that even the preselective tests of the ordinary competitions for childhood and primary and for secondary school, foreseen immediately after the extraordinary competition, could not be carried out under this regime.
