“I don’t feel included in PE at school”

Children with disabilities sit on the side-lines while their schoolmates play

Six out of every ten children with disabilities feel excluded from physical education classes in schools.

Less than three in every ten find it easy to take part in physical activities at all.

 

These are among the distressing figures from Active Disability Ireland’s Youth Survey 2023, released today ahead of this month’s National Seminar of Inclusion and the launch of Active Disability Ireland’s new youth forum.
