This toolkit has been designed to provide an introduction to inclusion in the School Games, highlighting key statistics surrounding each Special Educational Need and Disability (SEND)
and signposting to opportunities to upskill your knowledge in inclusive practice for young people with SEND.
Inclusion is the practice of providing equal access to opportunities and resources for all individuals. Almost a third (29.0%) of disabled children are participating in less than 30 minutes of physical activity each day, (Active Lives Survey, 2022/23). Therefore it is critical that our School Games events offer the opportunity for all young people to participate in safe, meaningful and accessible activities.
This toolkit has been co-created with the National Disability Sport Organisations (NDSOs) who are the leading experts within inclusive sport. They provide advice, support and opportunities for people of all ages with specific impairments.
