Top Rated in Italian and mathematics: the proof of the Agnelli Foundation on a study of children will re. "But the structures must be of good quality"

MARIA NOVELLA DE LUCA

better at school, more sociable, more independent. But even more able to concentrate more creative in the game, more open to his teammates. And if mothers work, the score does not surprise serious, even better. Attending a nursery school in the first thousand days of life, ie from 0 to 3 years, seems to be an investment for the future of children.

On their cognitive abilities, but also emotional and psychological. Provided of course that the structure is valid, cozy, high-level teaching, and not as often happens, a baby parking. These are the results, yet completely new for Italy, a research sponsored by the Agnelli Foundation and signed by Daniela Del Boca and Silvia Pasqua, faculty of Economics at the University of Turin. Comparing different data sources, ma in particolare i risultati degli ultimi test Invalsi (ossia sul livello di preparazione) per la seconda e la quinta elementare nell'anno 2009/10, ciò che emerge in modo netto è la maggiore preparazione sia in italiano che in matematica dei bambini che nella prima infanzia avevano frequentato un asilo nido.

Dati sorprendenti e nuovi per il nostro paese, dove da una parte c'è una grande carenza di asili nido pubblici, ma dove persiste anche una forte diffidenza all'idea di "far uscire da casa" i propri piccoli almeno fino ai tre anni di vita. Una recente ricerca della Banca d'Italia dimostra infatti che il 58% dei genitori italiani ritiene che nella prima fase della vita "è meglio children remain with their mothers. "And many psychologists and therapists agree with this position and warned by the sense of" rootlessness and neglect "that can arise in babies assigned to seven, eight months in care outside the family. Yet in all world, says Daniela Del Boca, "Research on childcare, ie, services for children, are in progress for some time, more and more we understand how important the investment in early childhood education, as demonstrated by the award Nobel Prize for Economics James Hackman, who has demonstrated the benefits of investing in human capital diminish with increasing age.

So the nursery as primo luogo dell'apprendimento. Vera alternativa a quello che finora è stato l'unico tipo di childcare nel nostro paese, e cioè i nonni, nove milioni in Italia, di cui 8 milioni occupati a tempo pieno nell'accudimento dei nipoti. La ricerca, dal titolo "Esiti scolastici e comportamentali, famiglia e servizi per l'infanzia", condotta anche in collaborazione con la New York University e il Collegio "Carlo Alberto" di Torino, ribalta insomma il punto di osservazione, il nido cioè come luogo fondamentale per i bambini, oltre che salvagente per le famiglie. Entrando nel dettaglio, i test Invalsi dimostrano che gli alunni che hanno frequentato il nido hanno punteggi più alti di un punto e mezzo in italiano e di mezzo punto in matematica, percentage increases for children who come from immigrant families and even more if the mother works. "It seems paradoxical but it's true - clarifies Daniela Del Boca - because on the one hand, the absence of the mother is a negative factor on the educational achievement of children, this is offset by the attendance of a good nest. In Italy we have extraordinary experiences, to starting from Reggio Emilia, and in fact, waiting lists are longer than just where there is a tradition of quality. " The matter is delicate, however. "If the nest is not excellent - in fact he says firmly Maria Rita Parsi, a psychotherapist with extensive experience - then it is better that the children remain at home. If the asylum, to make a as I know, is like that of Ferrero in Alba, with a team of high-level educational psychology, where parents can come and go whenever they want, then the benefits are enormous. Unfortunately, the nests are often poor. And for a baby a few months every posting is a trauma, and every little cry must be heard. All this can happen in a nest? ".

The debate is open." Our goal - concludes Andrea Gavosto, director of the Agnelli Foundation - was precisely to provoke a discussion about the importance of the nests, as the first steps of learning. And the new OECD-PISA data demonstrate once again that those who have attended una buona struttura nella prima infanzia avrà un futuro scolastico più agevole". "
