An almost liberating applause from students and parents accompanied the end of the oral exam of a class of the Galileo scientific high school in Spadafora (Messina) taken for the second time by decision of the Regional Administrative Court, after the Regional School Office of Sicily had identified irregularities, confirmed by the judges.
This morning the last two exams. The student whose family had filed the complaint after the final results of the high school diploma closed. The results of the new tests should be known on the same day.
A spokesperson for the students, in a video interview published by the Gazzetta del Sud website, says that the class "took the exam with honesty, sincerity and calmness".
"We thank the Commission for putting us at ease - he added in the presence of the boys' lawyers, the lawyers Caterina Galletta and Andrea Fiore - Galileo is not only the school of appeal. We live with our heads held high and for this reason we need to clarify by telling the truth, which is that we have all been treated in the same way."
On the other hand, there was silence from the family of the student who filed the complaint. The lawyer Maria Chiara Isgrò, who assists her, has anticipated that in the next few hours she will release a statement.
It was only three weeks ago that the students learned that the administrative judges had rejected their appeal in order to prevent the legal action taken by one of their classmates from forcing them to return to study.
The second exam started two days ago and ended today with the last two students to be examined.
