RT info:eu-repo/semantics/article T1 Reconsiderando la exención en Educación Física para los deportistas de «alto nivel» A1 Rodríguez de la Cruz, Julio César A2 Ediciones Universidad de Valladolid AB There is no doubt that society at large and education in particular are sensitive to issues related to inclusion. With regard to Physical Education, there are many studies that bear witness to this concern (Arribas & Fernández 2015), focusing on the pupils with special educational needs. It would be inconceivable today to exclude a pupil from the educational system based on his/her particular features.However, there are some educational regulations that allow certain students to get rid of Physical Education in E.S.O. (compulsory Secondary Education) and Bach (post-compulsory Secondary Education). This is the case of those students who are considered to be «high-level» athletes. Their characteristics, completely opposite to pupils with learning difficulties related to disability (mainly motor disability), can place them (it’s optional) out of PE school environment.Although this possibility has a clear legal ground, the facts and arguments in which is based on are not so coherent. The purpose of this paper is to consider the mentioned regulations in order to uncover the underlying logic, reason d’être and bring up some questions.
