I don't disagree that it is expensive to go and do - insurance, as Adam pointed out earlier, is a major hurdle - but that doesn't mean it should be left out of school altogether

Schools aim to get kids involved in a handful of sports, there are dozens of minority sports out there that schools do not get involved in and much as we love it motorsport is just one of those and a very expensive one at that. By all means push for the motorsport industry to put some money and effort into raising awareness amongst schools and school children but the approach won't be coming from the schools and frankly there is no reason why it should.
