Children across Friuli Venezia Giulia region will return to school this Thursday 16 September, with new Green Pass rules in place for teachers and parents.
As the new academic year begins, Friuli Venezia Giulia retains its anti-covid rules from last year: staggered entry and exit times, social distancing, masks for children over the age of six, and reduced capacity on school buses.
The main difference this year is that teachers, school employees, external staff and parents entering school property are required to carry the Green Pass – a digital or paper certificate showing that people have been vaccinated, tested negative or recovered from covid-19.
The pass, which is not required by schoolchildren, is also mandatory for university staff and students.
- Details about the Green Pass can be found – in Italian – on the Certificazione Verde website while for official information about the covid-19 situation in Italy – in English – see the health ministry website.
