General Roberto Vannacci amid Italian school controversy over transgender student allegations

A professor at Rome’s Liceo Aristofane was accused of humiliating a transgender student, allegedly denying the pupil bathroom access and using inappropriate language. The student’s mother reported the incident to the media, and advocacy groups called for protective school policies. The teacher appeared on stage at a conference organized by General Roberto Vannacci, leader of Futuro Nazionale, where she defended her actions by citing official registration rules and claimed the school had not taken a stance.

In a related commentary, a former teacher endorsed Vannacci’s hard‑line view on the education system, criticizing what he described as low standards, political interference, and the cost of keeping students in school. He argued for stricter, more selective curricula and expressed skepticism about reforms, positioning himself against Minister Valditara’s approach to schooling.
