The ordinary secondary school competition had been expected for years by about half a million candidates, but already after the first test, with multiple answers, another "massacre of the innocents" was revealed: there are commissions that registered zero admissions and very many no more than 5%;
one of the "best" performances was achieved in Puglia, where for the English competition class - AB24 and AB25 - a quarter of the participants passed the test;
also in Puglia, what happened with the A022 (Italian, History, Geography in lower secondary school) is exemplary, with the computer based test of 21 and 22 March only passed by 87 aspiring teachers out of about 2,300 candidates, with just 3.7% of written participants who will be able to carry out the oral exam.
To tell it is the union Anief according to which "what is happening confirms that the competitions, ordinary and extraordinary, organized by the administration are watering from all sides. If an ordinary competition procedure is organized to hire over 30 thousand secondary school teachers of first and second degree, even of support, and then select less than 10% of them, there is something wrong with the way of selecting ", says Marcello Pacifico, national president of Anief.
"The failure to open the merit ranking with all suitable candidates was not enough, to overcome which we presented an amendment to the Sostegni ter decree: now we have reached the paradox of having almost all rejected. If we find ourselves with hundreds of thousands of rejected ones, not even worthy of being heard at the oral exam, perhaps the problem is the tests: poorly formulated questions, probably not even foreseen by the program or at least irrelevant. The need - concludes Pacifico - to review the recruitment system, opening up to the double channel, which safeguards the precarious with over 24-36 months on half of the free places, and which does not rage for free on candidates even going to reject trained and competent people ".
