In Sardinia, the unions have raised the alarm for early school leaving, "which in some cases even exceeds the last recorded regional average, that of 36%, certainly exacerbated by the long phase of the pandemic".
"One of the most serious problems - explains Emanuele Usai, Flc Cgil - is that of sizing : in Sardinia 25 school autonomies are at risk. Linked to this issue are also the phenomenon of early school leaving and that of staff. And then in Sardinia it is a lot There is a strong problem of support : requests are increasing, schools are struggling to keep up with the needs of students and families ". Great protagonist "the chronic shortage of staff (just think of the problem of support that would require 9000 teachers compared to a commitment of about half) and the effects that the announced cut of 15 thousand workers throughout Italy could have".
