It took place online, with live social media on the Facebook page Legambiente training school, the national presentation of XX Report on the quality of school buildings and services.

As every year School ecosystem, intended to represent a snapshot of the quality of school buildings and services, mainly safety, innovation and inclusion, to understand the starting point and the steps to be taken for buildings, transport, canteens and management models capable of making schools more sustainable in the territories.

The Administration was also invited to intervene at the presentation conference, coordinated by Vanessa Pallucchi, national vice president of Legambiente, and also attended by the Minister of Education, Patrizio Bianchi, and Federico Pizzarotti, as vice president of ANCI. municipality of Campobasso, with its mayor, Roberto Gravina.

A recognition that Legambiente wanted to reserve for the municipality of the regional capital, for the attention that the administrations, both the current one and the previous ones, have had towards the issue of school buildings.

“We benefit, as an Administration, from a planning activity on this matter inherited from various previous administrations and implemented, not without difficulty, since the period immediately following that of the earthquake which dramatically affected our region and the school of San Julian. – declared Mayor Gravina – I believe, however, that it is equally tangible that regarding school buildings and the quality of the services connected to it, the Administration that I have been leading for just over a year and a half has developed, with determination, a own activity, especially with a view to regeneration. In this area which has seen an infinite series of school buildings closed over the years, the main theme must now be to build privately owned schools that guarantee safety, hospitality and livability. For this reason – added Gravina – we are trying to give a strong push to ensure that our city can have new schools within a three-year period. It would make everything easier if we could perhaps count on administrative legislation that allows us to disentangle those procedures which, more and more often, end up becoming the symbol of how much bureaucracy is an obstacle to the concrete realization of what communities need in times quick.

In recent days, but more generally since the beginning of the pandemic emergency - explained the mayor - the Administration has worked from a technological point of view to further strengthen the network of connection services of the city's schools which, for almost all of them, among other things, can use fibre.

But this Administration is also placing attention on schools and on their integration into a more extensive and comprehensive city system in view of the new PUMS that will be prepared, because it will be determined, in addition to continuing to develop important paths in theme of energy efficiency on individual structures, giving an ecological and sustainable footprint to our city also in terms of school transport.”
