The educational system of Southern Italy since 1806 to 1861 presents different levels of efficiency for any of the three branches of education taken into consideration in this research (primary school, secondary school and schools of agriculture). As for primary school, it was a very frail system, mainly due to the poverty of municipalities, which, according to the law, had to support it. Teachers used to have poor salaries, and, as a consequence, had few skills. As regards the schools of agriculture, the government tried to establish them in the whole Kingdom in 1840, according to a organic government bill. Anyway these schools arose only in one third of the municipalities, and had serious problems, such as scarcity of resources, lack of teachers, and badly-furnished buildings. As for secondary school, the situation is very different. Colleges were financed not only by municipalities and local governments, but also by boarders. Sounder economic bases meant a wide supply of courses, sometimes ranging to university disciplines. Unlike their colleagues of primary school, teachers had relatively good salaries, and, consequently, good professional skills.
Il sistema scolastico meridionale, nel periodo 1806 - 1861, presenta gradi di efficienza diversi per ciascuno dei tre comparti dell’istruzione qui considerati (istruzione primaria, agraria e secondaria). Per quanto riguarda la scuola primaria, si evidenzia una realtà molto fragile, imputabile principalmente alla povertà dei comuni, che dovevano sopportare i relativi costi. Per i docenti, erano previsti bassissimi livelli stipendiali, che si traducevano in competenze inadeguate. Per quanto riguarda l’istruzione agraria, il governo ebbe il merito di diffonderla in tutto il Regno nel 1840, nel contesto di un organico progetto di riforma. Le scuole di agricoltura si segnalarono tuttavia per una attivazione solo parziale e per un funzionamento incerto, afflitto dai medesimi problemi riscontrabili nella scuola primaria: povertà di risorse, carenza di insegnanti, precari edifici scolastici. In riferimento all’istruzione superiore, il quadro è differente. Collegi e licei possedevano infatti un finanziamento misto, derivante in parte da fondi provinciali e comunali, e in parte dalle rette dei convittori. Le più solide basi economiche consentirono un’ampia offerta didattica, che spaziava fino ai corsi universitari. Quanto ai docenti, a differenza di ciò che accadeva nella scuola primaria, le retribuzioni erano assolutamente dignitose, e questo si traduceva in un’elevata professionalità.

Abstract
The educational system of Southern Italy since 1806 to 1861 presents different levels of efficiency for any of the three branches of education taken into consideration in this research (primary school, secondary school and schools of agriculture). As for primary school, it was a very frail system, mainly due to the poverty of municipalities, which, according to the law, had to support it. Teachers used to have poor salaries, and, as a consequence, had few skills. As regards the schools of agriculture, the government tried to establish them in the whole Kingdom in 1840, according to a organic government bill. Anyway these schools arose only in one third of the municipalities, and had serious problems, such as scarcity of resources, lack of teachers, and badly-furnished buildings. As for secondary school, the situation is very different. Colleges were financed not only by municipalities and local governments, but also by boarders. Sounder economic bases meant a wide supply of courses, sometimes ranging to university disciplines. Unlike their colleagues of primary school, teachers had relatively good salaries, and, consequently, good professional skills.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
