Italy is planning some big changes for its schools. Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni says the government wants to ban veils in classrooms.
Officials also want to set a limit on how many foreign students can be in one class at a time. This would change how schools are organized across the country.
Meloni says these new rules are meant to help keep Italian culture strong and make sure schools run smoothly.
The plan has already started a big conversation about how Italy handles different cultures and traditions in public buildings like schools.
