School, Guarantor: "The blocking of ballots is illegitimate"

The Guarantee Authority for strikes has rejected the hypothesis of blocking the ballots, clarifying that, if it were implemented, the injunction would necessarily be triggered. This was stated by Roberto Alesse, president of the Authority, who defines the blocking of ballots "illegitimate and harmful", even if "at the moment there is no official communication of a strike aimed at blocking the ballots. On the contrary, I see encouraging signs of availability and dialogue both on the part of the Government and on the part of the most responsible trade unions. This is the time for accountability. It is necessary to find a point of convergence to prevent protests from taking striking forms, with illegitimate actions that would especially harm students and their families".

According to the Guarantor, moreover, “concertation remains, also in this case, the main way to avoid tears, which would tear the social fabric of the country. I really hope that recourse to the injunction tool remains only a theoretical option, because, in the event of blocking of the ballots, it would be the obligatory and necessary way to avoid the paralysis of the final cycles of the school courses (third grade exams, maturity, qualifications professionals)".

Meanwhile, this morning the minister Stefania Giannini announced the start of the discussion of the bill with a tweet: "Today in the Montecitorio room for a general discussion on the good school bill, which puts autonomy at the center and invests 3 billion in education". 

The minister then declared to Gr Rai that "this is an important cultural turning point for our country because not only is school autonomy put back at the centre, not only are schools given real tools to be able to ensure that autonomy takes off but above all, one imagines to ferry the school from the last century to this century”.
