The new writing examinations in Italian at the end of lower and upper secondary school

Abstract

In 2018 and 2019 the Italian Ministry of Education (MIUR) introduced new writing examinations at the end of lower and upper secondary school that have a strong coherence, as they follow indications of the same work group. These tests derive from an idea of continuity between different school cycles. They demand a vertical programming from teachers which, with appropriate resuming, should guarantee pupils the fluency in Italian needed for the exercise of full and informed citizenship.
