Maturity exam: here’s how it changes in 2026

“With this decree, the state exam is back to being a high school exam, with the aim of evaluating the overall growth of the student, its degree of autonomy and responsibility. We review the oral for this purpose, which from next year all students will have to regularly support in order to be promoted: whoever voluntarily changes the wetsuit will be rejected; We also give value to the particularly deserving actions that denote the candidate’s responsibility and commitment. The discussion on the ‘document’ that had created uncertainties on the contents of the test is eliminated, instead at the oral they will take four subjects characterizing in the name of greater seriousness and serenity. The maturity thus enters that reforming path that we have started since the beginning of our mandate restoring centrality to the person of the student ». Thus the Minister of Education and Merit Giuseppe Valditara presented the reform of the high school exam.

The reform of the high school exam

The two written tests remain, while the interview will focus on the four main disciplines of the study courses – identified by decree of the Minister – and will be integrated by an assessment of the overall training course, which will also take into account civic education and school -work training.

According to Italian rumors and mathematics, they will appear in almost all paths as the main disciplines of the course of study. For the classic: Latin or Greek.

There will no longer be the document chosen by the Commission to begin the examination that was used since 2017. There will be greater attention to the activities of the “school-work training courses”.

The interview will not be valid if the student deliberately chooses silence. Particular attention will be paid to the role of the commissioners, to whom specific training will be ensured.

The student curriculum, attached to the final diploma, will have to offer an organic representation of the training course and the significant experiences gained.

It is reduced the number of components Of the commissions of six to four: the president remain, two interiors and two exteriors.

Citizenship and vote in conduct

The decree provides that the critical elaborate on active and solidarity citizenship, for students who report at least six tenths in conduct, is the subject of integrating the final ballot. Thus, the link between civic responsibility and training course is strengthened. This measure is part of the wider reform of the vote of conduct.

Dates

The exams are changed. For years the first written test was on Wednesday, now he passes on Thursday. The second test passes to Friday and the orals start in the first days of the following week. The dates of the writings are 18 and 19 June 2026.
