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

A Toolkit for Physical Education Teacher

4. Create an inclusive environment
“The report of the Council on the broader role of education adopted in November 2004 stressed that education contributes to preserving and renewing the common cultural background in society and to learning essential social and civic values such as citizenship, equality, tolerance and respect, and is particularly important at a time when all Member States are challenged by the question of how to deal with increasing social and cultural diversity. Moreover, enabling people to enter and stay in working life is an important part of the role of education in the strengthening of social cohesion.”

Inclusive Physical Education activities can help young people acquire the civic and social values mentioned in the European framework and promote the following social factors:
• behaving properly
• listening quietly
• staying on the task
• following the rules
• taking turns
• playing cooperatively

All the subjects involved in the education system share the responsibility for the achievement of the above- mentioned results: Physical Education teachers are responsible for providing the enthusiasm, reviewing current practice in order to improve teaching and learning and disseminating relevant information about Physical Education programs and outcomes. Once acquired the information, parents are responsible for supporting programs, encouraging students to participate regularly in Physical Education lessons and share their ideas, showing interest for the students’ work and progress. Progress reports and e-mail messages can ensure effective communication
Learning Objective
