What is the need of inclusion in physical education?

Inclusion is needed for the following reasons:

1. Inclusion in physical education increases social skills of students with disabilities.
2. Inclusion is needed to increase motor skills of students with disabilities.
3. A disabled student gets equal chance to participate in age-appropriate activities so, it increases the confidence level.
4. Typical students get a chance to increase friendships with disabled children.
5. Inclusive education provides an opportunity for typical students to go beyond tolerance to acceptance and advocacy.
6. Inclusive education enables a student to increase their knowledge and acceptance based on the “contact theory”. Through frequency, meaningful and pleasant interactions, changes in attitude can occur.
