Hi, the The Children Act and UNCRC are requirements http://www.silkysteps.com/forum/showthread.php?t=6577

Theories and models are Social model of disability, accessibility, anti-discriminatory
Read page 25, after you search for 'social model' inside this amazon book preview

If you scroll up to page 5 it'll also give you some reading for Q1

Hi a warm welcome to the site. The Best Play publication looks at the benefits these aspects have for children's development.

Quote:

The importance of risk
Play is a key element in children learning to appreciate, assess and take calculated risks, which is fundamental to the development of confidence and abilities in childhood. Children seek out opportunities for risk-taking and it is the responsibility of play provision to respond with exciting and stimulating environments that balance risks appropriately.

Benefits that are experienced at the time that the child is playing
Play:

•  Provides children with opportunities to enjoy freedom, and exercise choice and control over their actions (see objective 1, Section 8)
•  Offers children opportunities for testing boundaries and exploring risk (see objectives 2 and 3)
•  Offers a very wide range of physical, social and intellectual experiences for children (see objectives 2 and 4)

Benefits that develop over time
Play:

•  Fosters children's independence and self-esteem (see objective 5)
•  Develops children's respect for others and offers opportunities for social interaction (see objective 6)
•  Supports the child's well-being, healthy growth and development (see objective 7)
•  Increases children's knowledge and understanding (see objective 7)
•  Promotes children's creativity and capacity to learn (see objective 7)

Play Deprivation

•  poorer ability in motor tasks
•  lower levels of physical activity
•  poorer ability to deal with stressful or traumatic situations and events
•  poorer ability to assess and manage risk
•  poorer social skills, leading to difficulties in negotiating social situations
• such as dealing with conflict and cultural difference

Hope this helps
