And, what is worse, the most affected are young people in disadvantaged socio-economic conditions, with all due respect to the role of social elevator that the school should have.

Taking the picture of the failure of the school system Italian test of the pandemic are the results of the Invalsi tests, carried out after the forced break in 2020. 1.1 million primary school students (second and fifth grades) were involved: 530 thousand in the last year of lower secondary school and 475 thousand pupils who took the baccalaureate exam during the past weeks.

Beyond the step backwards with respect to the results, a correlation emerges between the scores obtained and the income of the students' families. In fact, putting the results of the Invalsi tests as a parameter on the basis of the ESCS, or the indicator of the socio-economic situation of the students, it emerges that the poorest (those with a low or medium-low indicator) are those who also obtain a worse result. in Invalsi tests.

Another topic dealt with in the report concerns implicit early school leaving. An indicator that measures the percentage of students who, despite having completed their studies, have not acquired basic skills. These are the results:

Important;} As can be appreciated from the graph, the phenomenon has seen an increase in 2021. An increase that has affected to a greater extent students who come from a more difficult socio-economic background, as we said. In short, the poorest students paid the highest price for the ways in which the school responded to the pandemic. Those, that is, who most of all need an education to make their way in life.
