Past school policy unseemly says Renzi (2)

(ANSA) - Matera, May 2 - Premier Matteo Renzi on Monday slammed the "unseemly" school hiring policies of governments that preceded his and claimed credit for launching a competitive entrance examination not seen in 20 years to give part-time teachers a steady post.
