Startchancen schools are often very heterogeneous. An inclusive exercise space offers low-threshold entry points and several difficulty levels at the same station. BARbara’s QR library with four levels supports this differentiation. The Neinstedt inclusive sport area, a municipal project supported by Lotto Sachsen-Anhalt, shows that BARbara can be part of an inclusive site.
What makes an exercise space inclusive
- Low-threshold exercises without prior knowledge
- Several difficulty levels at the same station
- Accessible routes to the station (planned by the school authority)
- Exercises that can be done standing, sitting or with support
- A shared place instead of separate offers
Differentiation with four levels
The QR library distinguishes between Beginner, Advanced, 50+ and Pro. Teachers can assign exercises according to individual ability – a principle they know from internal differentiation in class.
Reference: Neinstedt
In Neinstedt (Saxony-Anhalt), an inclusive sport area with BARbara was realised as a municipal project with support from Lotto Sachsen-Anhalt. It is not a school project, but a reference for inclusive outdoor fitness.

Frequently asked questions
Is BARbara wheelchair accessible?
Accessibility depends on the site planning (surface, routes, safety zone). Please discuss individual requirements with us before planning.
Is inclusion relevant for Pillar I funding?
Pillar I aims at an accessible learning environment. Inclusion arguments can strengthen the pedagogical justification; the decision lies with the state authority.
Where can I see the Neinstedt project?
