Only a quarter (25%)of disabled children say they take part in sport and activity all of the time at school, compared to 41% of non-disabled children
Yet, we know that a positive experience in PE and school sport is essential to shape every child’s life-long participation. It can affect how we feel about being active for the rest of our lives. Data suggests not all young disabled people (often referred to in education settings as special educational needs or disabilities – SEND) are fully included in PE.
Sometimes finding the best resources and support to improve inclusive practice in schools can be a challenge. So, the Activity Alliance now want to help schools to access the most relevant information.

It is all made possible through the Department for Education funded, Inclusion 2024 project. Once registered, teachers will be able to complete the Inclusive PE self-assessment. They you will be directed to relevant resources based on their answers and receive tips to continually improve the way they work.
