Italy enforces new school regulations

The government of Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni has approved a decree featuring measures aimed at improving integration in schools. These include setting a maximum of 30% for foreign students who lack sufficient language or educational background in certain grades, establishing a cap on the number of non-Italian students in classrooms, and banning face coverings in schools. The decree also mandates some parents to learn the Italian language, with fines of up to 1,000 euros for those who do not comply, and includes exemptions for those born in Italy or who have spent enough years within the Italian educational system. The goal of these measures is to enhance Italian language learning and prevent "ghetto classes," despite criticism from unions regarding their practical implementation. The decree must be approved by Parliament within 60 days to become a permanent law, with possible amendments to some of its details.
