Which of the following is NOT a raising participation measure for people with learning difficulties?

• A. Competitive leagues for able-bodied youth
• B. High level of adult supervision
• C. Adapted games and equipment
• D. Specialized classes

Answer: (A)

Raising participation for people with learning difficulties relies on creating accessible, supportive activities that people can join. Competitive leagues for able-bodied youth are designed for those without learning difficulties and often assume higher skill and fitness levels, which can exclude those who need adjustments. This makes it unlikely for people with learning difficulties to participate, so it doesn’t help increase their involvement. The other approaches—high levels of adult supervision, adapted games and equipment, and specialized classes—offer safety, tailored accessibility, and targeted instruction that encourage more people to take part and build confidence.
