evaluate how the policies and procedures of the setting support children and young people

[Meganjane93]

Okay, so my unit 9 question 1b answer has been resubmitted.

Evaluate how the policies and procedures of the setting support children and young people to:

• feel safe
• make a positive contribution
• develop social and emotional skills
• understand expectations and limits

My assessor has said "You need to discuss not only the benefits of these but the draw backs and difficulties with ensuring they are complies with within the positive behaviour remit."

Complete brain fog and don't even any know where to start. Any help please

Hi, this reply is from a practitioner on another thread:

Here are the 'Learner Guidance Notes' for this question

1.2 How polices support children: Every Child Matters outcomes;

• to feel safe eg inappropriate behaviour is consistently responded to
So drawbacks and difficulties could be staff deployment problems and that everyone is aware of the policy and procedures that guide how inapproprite behaviour should be responded to. What does your Positive Behaviour policy say?

• make a positive contribution eg involvement in setting ground rules
Drawbacks and difficulties could arise if children are not involved in setting ground rules themselves.

• develop social and emotional skills eg positive behaviour rewarded, adults model appropriate behaviour
Rewarding positive behaviour needs to be balanced between all children. Staff training might be needed so that everyone is aware of what appropriate behaviours they should be modelling.
