Italia interzice vălurile islamice care acoperă fața în școli: ce alte schimbări se mai fac pentru elevii străini

Italy has implemented new school regulations prohibiting face coverings and limiting foreign students who do not speak Italian to 30% of a class. The decree, signed by President Sergio Mattarella, mandates that students' faces must be recognizable, banning Islamic veils like the burqa and niqab. Starting from the 2027-2028 school year, a quota will be enforced for foreign students lacking sufficient Italian language skills. Parents facing significant communication barriers may be required to take language courses. These emergency measures need parliamentary approval within 60 days to remain valid. Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni's government, formed by a right-wing coalition, has faced pressure from a new political group advocating stricter immigration policies.
