Inclusion in School Physical Education and Physical Activity
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
Inclusive physical education and physical activity programs in schools provide equal opportunities for all students, including those with disabilities. All students, regardless of ability, should get the recommended 60 minutes or more of daily physical activity. Schools can help them meet this recommendation. This brief is for state education and health leaders. It defines inclusion, identifies relevant federal policies, describes the current status of inclusion in the United States, and suggests six actions state leaders can take to promote inclusion in physical education and physical activity at the district and school levels.
