The National Guidelines for Educational Guidance, in line with the European Recommendations, highlight the importance of strengthening the link between lower and upper secondary education to foster informed and sustainable choices and to promote equitable access to higher education. Within this framework, school guidance takes on a pedagogical and inclusive value aimed at supporting the potential of all students, particularly those facing greater difficulties. This study involved 174 trainee support teachers enrolled in the Specialisation Programme for Support Teaching (TFA) at two universities in the Lazio region during the 2024/25 academic year, through the administration of a questionnaire, with the aim of exploring their representations of inclusive guidance and their training needs. Results show a strong awareness of guidance as a shared pedagogical responsibility, but also the persistence of more traditional views of guidance practices. The findings underline the need for more experiential and practice-based teacher training to make guidance an integral and inclusive part of everyday teaching practice.
Le Linee guida nazionali per l’orientamento, in coerenza con le Raccomandazioni europee, evidenziano l’importanza di rafforzare il raccordo tra il primo e il secondo ciclo di istruzione per favorire scelte consapevoli e sostenibili e promuovere un accesso equo all’istruzione terziaria. In questo quadro, l’orientamento scolastico assume un valore pedagogico e inclusivo, volto a sostenere le potenzialità di tutti gli studenti e di tutte le studentesse, in particolare di coloro che incontrano maggiori difficoltà. Il presente studio, attraverso la somministrazione di un questionario, ha coinvolto 174 docenti di sostegno in formazione (TFA) presso due Atenei del Lazio durante l’a.a. 2024/25, con l’obiettivo di esplorare le loro rappresentazioni riguardo le prassi dell’orientamento inclusivo e i loro bisogni formativi. I risultati evidenziano una buona consapevolezza dell’orientamento come responsabilità pedagogica condivisa, ma anche la persistenza di visioni ancora tradizionali delle pratiche orientative. Si sottolinea la necessità di una formazione docente più esperienziale e laboratoriale per rendere l’orientamento parte integrante e inclusiva dell’esperienza didattica quotidiana.

Abstract
The National Guidelines for Educational Guidance, in line with the European Recommendations, highlight the importance of strengthening the link between lower and upper secondary education to foster informed and sustainable choices and to promote equitable access to higher education. Within this framework, school guidance takes on a pedagogical and inclusive value aimed at supporting the potential of all students, particularly those facing greater difficulties. This study involved 174 trainee support teachers enrolled in the Specialisation Programme for Support Teaching (TFA) at two universities in the Lazio region during the 2024/25 academic year, through the administration of a questionnaire, with the aim of exploring their representations of inclusive guidance and their training needs. Results show a strong awareness of guidance as a shared pedagogical responsibility, but also the persistence of more traditional views of guidance practices. The findings underline the need for more experiential and practice-based teacher training to make guidance an integral and inclusive part of everyday teaching practice.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
