Sport as a Mean of Social Inclusion

A Toolkit for School Director

3. Maximize students’ skills through flexible practices

The main goal we are concerned with is “social inclusion” which is a right for everybody, but also a duty for everybody. As we all know disadvantaged students’ needs are very complex and are connected with different spheres of life. Disadvantaged students must become integrated with the others so they need specific help. Sport can play a very important role in the inclusion process, but schools must be organized in such a way that students can develop and express their potential: flexibility could be one of the answers. For this reason school directors should promote a flexible attitude. “Flexibility” should be carried out in schools by
• Being responsive and attentive to the needs of individual students
• Adjusting the planned teaching activities according to the students’ commitments to sport
• Adapting the time allotted for learning, task completion or testing .
Learning Objective
The aim of this step is that School Directors deal effectively with the processes of change in order to improve the school results of all the students and allow students to combine study and training.
