Best Midrange Home Theater

FROM SCHOOL 'MARCONI' Theatre Festival in Lucca, pupil-actors away

has attracted publicity in the media, but no surprise among the experts, the news of the penultimate place occupied by Italy in the OECD classification of education spending relative to GDP, followed only by Slovakia (4 , 5% of GDP, against an OECD average of 5.7%). And spending on education as a proportion of total public expenditure in Italy is low: 9% against 13.3% of the OECD average.
But the numbers and percentages of deals from 2010 Education at a Glance (here summarized in the table
http://www.tuttoscuola.com/ts_news_453-1.doc
) deserve study because it is not always the representation data (necessarily static in investigations of this kind) and their simple tiling allow a full understanding of reality and the actual dynamics involved. On

Italian data, for example, have focused on Luisa Ribolzi Ilsussidiario.net (September 8, 2010), and Paul Ferratini Corriere della Sera (September 12). Both

note, for example, to be considered the weight of the demographic factor, because the weight assistance, health care and pensions on public expenditure is higher in a country like Italy that has an older population of the average of OECD countries, and compresses the other items of expenditure, including that for education (in excessive, however, as Tuttoscuola years supported).

And both note that the well-paid teachers working Germans, however, much more than the Italians, and with a greater number of students: for example, a German teacher of secondary school receives career after 15 years of € 57,978 per year , against 32,859 fellow Italian, but he averaged 14.9 against 10.2 students, and remain in class for 758 hours against 601 (26% more). If it is true that his salary is 76% higher than the Italian colleague, it is also true that his time of service develops 11,294 hours / student per year, compared with 6,130 of his Italian counterpart (+84%). These considerations, and other imbalances that can be done on the spending on education in Italy (the low salaries of teachers is a high cost per student, with participation of families and private spending is very low, around 7.7%, stands out as particularly low spending per student university) seem to corroborate this sense, the restrictive policies pursued by the ministers of the economy Padoa-Schioppa and Tremonti, who find their point of synthesis and real continuity, with regard to school education, with the aim of reducing substantially the number of employees, teachers, and not: only in this way (and encouraging professional development, but that's another story: too important, but different) would be possible to pay them better.

But the analysis does not end here. Under what conditions is the school buildings in Italy, compared for example to Germany? What is the adequacy of laboratories and teaching facilities in our country than in Finland or France? So, Italy has to fill a gap in a strategic sector such as education that undermines the global competitiveness of the country should take a strategic vision to invest proportionately more in school, doing so in a selective manner (not to rain, but by investing targeted which will be measured back to the community over the years) and cutting waste and inefficiency in all sectors, starting precisely from the education system, where it still lurk a lot. More investment, less waste: two concepts that would be married, to want it. Exactly ... by tuttoscuola.com
