The battle for competitions in schools continues: the oral tests for Sardinian teachers must be carried out in Sardinia. This is the objective of ASEL Sardinia which mobilized all the trade, union, social and institutional representatives with a conference which took place in Cagliari. The front of the protest and demands has even expanded, ASEL Sardinia has involved ASAEL Sicily, the similar association of Sicilian local authorities, which has posed the same problem.
«With the president of ASAEL Sicilia Matteo Cocchiara , with whom we had signed a pact of common commitment for some time and organized a conference on insularity together in Cagliari – recalled the president of ASEL Sardinia Rodolfo Cancedda – we agreed to support the demand of the school trade union organizations to have the oral tests of the Sardinian and Sicilian teachers participating in the current competitions carried out in Sardinia and Sicily, against the irrational and penalizing choice of the Ministry of Education to have them carried out in disadvantaged locations on the peninsula, which entail burdensome and expensive costs to reach the various chosen locations".
The ball is now in the hands of those responsible for the regional government after the new regional council has been installed and «together we are called to face the problem and implement the necessary strategies to go to Rome and ask for respect - states Rodolfo Cancedda - of the principles constitutional principles of insularity and territorial continuity which are achieved in this case in favor of the Sardinian school in all its structural, organisational, financial and educational aspects".
«The Sardinian local authorities are ready to do their part – concludes the President of the ASEL Rodolfo Cancedda and we ask the President of the Region and the Councilor for Public Education to urgently activate the Permanent Conference of the Region of Local Authorities to implement a proposal shared and a common path".
