Starting in the 2026/2027 academic year, Istituto Comprensivo “Di Matteo” is collecting a mandatory supplementary insurance fee of €4.80 per student, following structural changes to public coverage mandated by national legislation. According to the official directive issued by Istituto Comprensivo “Di Matteo” Principal Anna Vania Stallone, the fee covers specific gaps in the state-backed INAIL insurance framework.
Regulatory Background and Coverage Gaps
This followed initial provisions established in Decree-Law No. 48 of May 4, 2023, and INAIL Circular No. 1 of January 9, 2026.
Despite this public extension, the state-backed policy excludes three key areas: civil liability towards third parties (R.C.T.), general assistance, and legal protection. To cover these exposures, schools across the national system are implementing supplementary student insurance programs for families.
Fee Structure and Exemptions
At Istituto Comprensivo “Di Matteo”, the individual premium for the 2026/2027 academic year is set at €4.80 per pupil. In alignment with equity guidelines, students with disabilities receive full coverage at no cost and are entirely exempt from the payment.
Payment Methods for Enrolled Students
In compliance with Italian regulations governing payments to the Public Administration, families of students in Kindergarten (Scuola dell’Infanzia), Primary School (Primaria), and Lower Secondary School (Secondaria) must submit payments exclusively through the Pago In Rete (pagoPA) system. Payment notices become accessible via two primary digital channels:
- Electronic Register: Through the designated family payments section.
- UNICA Platform / Pago In Rete Portal: Accessible using digital identity credentials including SPID, CIE (Electronic Identity Card), or eIDAS.
Procedures for Primavera Sections
Students enrolled in the Primavera section for two-year-olds follow a distinct administrative route. Payments are processed collectively via bank transfer executed by responsible teachers of the campus on behalf of the school’s designated bank account. The transfer must reference the school as payee under IBAN IT41G0623081880000015266582, citing the specific insurance contribution for the 2026/2027 academic year and the relevant campus name. Responsible teachers of the campus collect payment receipts and submit the final roster to the secretariat office.
Deadlines and Compliance
The final deadline for all insurance contributions is November 30, 2026. School administrators emphasize that this deadline is strict because the institution must transmit the definitive roster of insured students to insurers on December 1, 2026. Detailed information regarding policy limits and guaranteed benefits is available in the “Protezione Scuole” informational package attached to the official school directive.
