Maturity strike. Valditara, ‘Bocciati if they boycott’

It will no longer be possible to make changes to the maturity exam as a form of protest: after the cases that occurred in Veneto – two students refused to take the oral exam – the Minister of Education Giuseppe Valditara has decided to intervene and ensures that the reform of the examination (which will not be called more than state but simply maturity) will contemplate the fact that if a boy does not present himself at the oral or voluntarily he decides not to answer the questions of the teachers, not But because he wants to ‘do not collaborate’ or ‘boycott’ the exam, he will have to repeat the year.

Just today a high school student from Belluno refused to take the oral exam to maturity: it is the second case in Veneto after that of the student of the Student Scientifico Fermi of Padua, Gianmaria Favaretto, 19 years old, who, although not supporting the oral, still obtained a diploma because he had already passed the sufficiency thanks to the votes of the credits of the last three years. Also in this case, explained the 19 -year -old student Maddalena Bianchi, the choice was made to protest “school evaluation mechanisms, the excessive competitiveness, the lack of empathy of the teaching staff”. Students of the network take the field on the side of Maddalena and Gianmaria.

If on the one hand we believe that a public examination must be maintained a respectful and responsible behavior, and that it is legitimate to expect seriousness from all the candidates, on the other hand it would be superficial to reduce these deals” Civil “to simple shortcomings of respect. It is a request for attention”.

The opinion of Mario Rusconi, president of Anp Roma, according to which “these guys who escaped from the oral test made a media -level gesture, theirs was a way to highlight themselves. Many use Instagram or other social networks, they chose a more original form”. Even for him the maturity, if it should not be abolished, should however be rethought. According to Ornella Cuzzupi, UGL School Secretary, “when oral and written tests are planned, it is not desirable that different ways of evaluation can exist”. Your opposition to support the tests, points out, can be put in the documents. And finally there are those who, like the National President Anp, Antonello Giannelli, urged an intervention by Minister Valditara: “It must be expected that supporting the interview is irreplaceable, those who refuse to take the oral exam must not be able to pass the exam, a modification of the current rules is needed”.
