Hi and welcome. These are some of the reasons why a child's development may not follow an expected pattern, as that would be of concern to a setting, they would use partnership working to support the child and their family.
Partnerships involve parents and carers, a child's designated key-person, SENCO, Health Vsitor, GP, speech and language theraist, educational psychologist, physiotherapist, nurse specialist, additional learning support teams and maybe youth justice teams -

If you
search inside this CYPW handbook on amazon.co.uk for the words 'expected pattern' click to page 73
Family structure and changes to that structure will require sharing information and working in partnership so that should eg. someone become ill, experience a bereavement, separate/divorce, introduce new adults or siblings to a family the transition a child will enters can be supported and and the impact on their development and learning is monitored -
effects of transition
Personal, social and emotional development:
p. 73 quote,
a significant element of a child's overall development seems to be howsettled and emotionally attached they are. Children or young people who are depressed or lacking in confidence may not be motivated to try out new skills.
Physical development:
p.73 quote:
some children's development pattern is affected by the genetic code. This may mean they are slow to develop i many areas for no specific reason. Children's development can also be slowed down by difficulties in physical growth.
Disabilities, impairements, illness will require partnership working to ensure a child development is supported and they can progress.
Socio-economic status:
p.73 quote Family sturcture and lifestyle seems to affect development. Although their is no 'perfect' family children whose parents have separated are more likely to have negative 'blips' in their development, as do children born into poverty. Some parents may accord less importance to some activities that are developmentally favourable such as playing outdoors, going to the library or talking together as a family and this may also affect a child's development.
Health and well-being; the access someone has to opportunities that support them throughout their life will depend on the services that are available and the attitude or approach of the peopkle offering othem. Low expectaions and steryotyping can impact on children who live with disabiliby, illness, self-esteem and self-confidence.
The different interventions provided by individuals and groups can be the difference a child needs to suceed.
2.2 - Explain the dilemmas a practitioner may face when identifying a potential support need which would require partnership working
This involves the child and parent's rights and your duty of care.
A dilemma might arise because of
• Lack of parental involvement or support
• Lack of support available from outside agencies
• Difference of opinion amongst colleagues or professionals
• Lack of support from your colleagues
• Lack of knowledge and training for the practitioner and their colleagues

These barriers are overcome through the relationship you and the setting have with the child, their parent, family and with the other agencies/professional that you currently work in partnership with and indeed how you look for other providers that could help the children in your setting.
