Sport as a Mean of Social Inclusion, Including Communication Strategies with Parents

A Toolkit for Physical Education Teacher

8. Twinning between schools
The idea is to put two schools in contact and organize tournaments between them. We are talking about social inclusion so it should be a good or normal school twinned with a disadvantaged school or a school for disabled children.
The tournaments should be directed by Physical Education teachers as well as parents who want. It could take the form of a fair and the school could ask the parents to organize a snack after the tournament and bake cakes, bring drinks…
Learning Objective
Once again, it is a way to involve parents in the lives of their children and create social links. Sport is not only about effort, it also has a clear social dimension.
