Abstract
ABSTRACT Equity issues in the field of arts and culture play an important role when it comes to extracurricular activities in education. Students with special educational needs (SEN) seem not provided with equal access. Using nation-wide random samples of fourth- and fifth-graders courtesy of the German National Education Panel Study (NEPS), the main analysis compares the amount of extracurricular musical activities of students with SEN placed in special education schools (n = 365), in general schools (n = 143), and of students without SEN in inclusive settings (n = 4048). Students placed in special education schools were significantly less likely to take classes in music schools than students with SEN placed in regular schools (and than students without SEN). There were no significant group differences regarding the attendance of concerts and theatre plays. Finally, implications for special education schools and inclusive settings are proposed.
