L’istituzione del primo nido a gestione comunale nel territorio del Comune di Foligno

Abstract

This contribution aims to investigate, through a local and territorial historiographical reconstruction, the establishment of the first nursery school within the territory of the Municipality of Foligno, in the period immediately following the publication in Italy of Law No. 1044 of December 6, 1971, The Five-Year Plan for the establishment of municipal nursery schools with the contribution of the State. This research perspective aligns with the vein of studies focusing on territories, local communities, and the real-life functioning of educational institutions. The research examines the establishment of the first municipally-managed nursery school based on sources derived from the Municipal Council Resolutions, searching through municipal archives scattered across the territory for the minutes of council and municipal board meetings, as well as Regional Council Resolutions.
