Hi, a warm welcome to the site.
As you've completed each of these units you've learnt what they mean, what's important and shown you how professional practices help to make sure you comply with regulations and know who to reach out to in different situations.
If these are the theories (units) you've previously completed, use your course handbook to consider how each one has enabled your work as a Childminder to know what to do, who to contact and how to keep reports.
•
Communication and professional relationships with children, young people and adults - eg. How you recognise the importance of effective communication and know it's benefits when building positive relationships (making time to talk, thinking about how you respond, being considerate, showing respect, be clear in what you say, actively listen, confirm key points, remember important issues, be able to show a non-judgemental attitude). Ability to identify barriers to communication (communication differences; sensory, speech, second languages, emotional & cultural differences, different values and ideas, if professional relationshipos have ever broken down, lack of communication)
How you comply with confidentiality, data protection and disclosing information.
•
Schools as organisations - eg. helped you understand the structure of education from early years to post-compulsory education. What the key stages of learning are and how your provision fits in with that, who's who within a school and the different responsibilities people have.
•
Understanding child and young person development and how this enables you to plan activities that meet childrren's ages and stage of development. Be able to identify concerns and know what to do and who to speak with so that the child and family is supported.
•
Understand how to safeguard the wellbeing of children and young people - eg. This would of shown you how important safeguarding is, your Duty of Care and responsibilities when it comes to parent's expectation that their child's safety and welfare will be a priority in your setting.
How would you respind to evidence or concern that a child is being abused or harmed?
Consider your Safeguarding policies and procedures and what you've learnt about; Childrens rights UNCRC, Human rights, The Prevent Duty, Children's Act, Local Safeguarding boards, Anti-Bullying and how you reduce risk with online activities, outings and visits.
Hope this helps a little xx
Summarise how you will be able to utilise these theories when working in an everyday situation?
