...E1 and E2: • Describe three different types of settings which provide care and education for children in your area. • Describe how each of the types of setting identified in E1 aims to support children and their names. There are three different sectors which provide care and education for children in my area, these are: • Statutory Sector • Voluntary Sector • Private Sector Statutory provision: These are services that have to be available by law which are funded and provided by the government such as The Sure Start Programme, The Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS), Children’s Centres, maintained nursery schools and nursery classes in primary schools. All of these services are free, as the child right to education. These services provide a wide range of education in different subjects. Nursery classes in lily’s primary school aims are to support and educate children by giving them the early education they need in order to be ready for primary school. Children are in small groups with the same age group as themselves; therefore they would build a relationship with other children as well as mix with others who have a different background/culture and beliefs. They usually start at 9am -11:30am or 1pm-3pm. Most nurseries have extended provisions to work with families such as after school clubs, breakfast clubs and even holiday clubs. Private provision: These services work independently and are profits making as they are funded through the fees. These services are not...

...Disability can affect development in many areas and is different in each child. Any disability can affect how a child interacts with others and they may become withdrawn or isolated. It can also affect behavioural development as they may become frustrated or angry if they find certain activities difficult. Not all disabilities affect all areas of development. Some will only affect one or two. For example, if a child has ASD, their social and emotional development could be affected or it could be their social and behaviour that’s affected. A child with a hearing impairment may find their language and communication is affected which can then affect their social development. A child could have a physical disability such as dyspraxia, which...

Positive relationship partnerships are form from practitioners to parents, carers and multi-agencies. Multi-agencies are different types of servicers brought together for one purpose, which is to support the needs of the child and young person. Through this partnerships are formed with practitioners and families through the key worker system, and integrated work supports the child and young person by meeting their needs and improving their life.

...When there are teams of professionals around a child, regular meetings are held to discuss any issues or progress made and ways to achieve a positive outcome for the child and parent. Also relevant referrals can be made to specialist agencies. Working together prevents duplication across all agencies, contributing to better support for the family. For example I send weekly reports to the social worker’s to update them on the progress of the young mothers and their babies. This report contains a variety of information from bonding and feeding baby to the well being of the mother. This ensures that all support is in place to help the development of the baby and parenting skills of the mother. Core group meetings are also usually held at our home...

...Effective communication with children, young people and families Good communication is central to working with children, young people, families and carers. It helps build trust, and encourages them to seek advice and use services. It is key to establishing and maintaining relationships, and is an active process that involves listening, questioning, understanding and responding. You should always communicate with them appropriately to match the stage of development, personal circumstances, and needs of the person you’re talking to. It is important to be able to communicate both on a one-on-one basis and in a group. Communication is not just about the words you use, but also about the way you’re speaking and your body language. You need to feel and show empathy and sincerity, and above all, listen. You need to take account of culture and context. For example, you need to be aware and communicate appropriately if English is an additional language, or the child is disabled or at risk of under-achievement or other poor outcomes. Effective communication extends to involving children, young people, their parents and carers in the design and delivery of services and decisions that affect them. It is important to consult the people affected and consider opinions and perspectives from the outset. Another crucial element of effective communication is developing trust between the workforce and children, young people, parents and carers – as well as within different sectors of the workforce...

... personal benefits, and social benefits. These featured benefits apply to both sexes and people of all ages. Although an assistant professor of sociology, at Wittenburg University in Ohio, states, “Participating in athletics helps students perform well in academically during high school more than any other extracurricular activity.” According to an article on the America.gov Webitse, she explains, “They benefit developmentally in terms of building self-confidence and self- esteem and the ability to problem-solve; they develop socially in that they build relationships with students and teachers and parents that can act as resources for them in terms of their academics.” Being involved in sports as a young child can help build a foundation for cooperative play, teamwork, and good sportsmanship. It is extremely beneficial to participate with sports in your childhood. The article, “The Amazing Benefits of Sports For Kids,” simply expresses that researches indicate that sports help children develop physical skill, get exercise, make friends, have fun, learn to play as a member of a team, learn to play fair, and improve self- esteem. Being involved with sports as a child gives you the ability to get along and be accepted by your parents, coaches, and friends. Childhood sports gives an individual belief to be capable, significant, successful, and worthy. Also as a child, watching professional athletes and role-models gives us confidence and makes our sport skills appear more...

...a conscious effort to get to know people, their likes, dislikes, beliefs and values, will help build relationships. You must show respect for others and be considerate, value everyone’s opinion and point of view, even when they are not the same as your own. Acknowledge different religious beliefs and values and make an effort to learn about them. Making sure to remember names and the way in which people prefer to be addressed will show that you are interested and will make people feel valued and respected as individuals. When communication is received via letter or email, even if you can’t answer it straight away, you should always acknowledge it and respond as soon as you are able to so the sender doesn’t feel ignored. It is important when communicating, whether it is written, verbal or otherwise, to be clear on any key points to avoid misunderstandings and possible upset or confusion. Question 3 Explain how: • Social background • Professional background • Cultural background affect relationships and the way people communicate.

...intellectual curiosity, motivation, and desire to achieve. It helps protect children from developing anxiety, depression, eating disorders, anti-social behavior, and alcohol and drug abuse. "Parenting is one of the most researched areas in the entire field of social science," says Steinberg, who is a distinguished professor of psychology at Temple University in Philadelphia. The scientific evidence for the principles he outlines "is very, very consistent," he tells WebMD. Too many parents base their actions on gut reaction. But some parents have better instincts than others, Steinberg says. Children should never be hit -- not even a slap on a toddler's bottom, he tells WebMD. "If your young child is headed into danger, into traffic, you can grab him and hold him, but you should under no circumstances hit him." Ruby Natale PhD, PsyD, professor of clinical pediatrics at the University of Miami Medical School, couldn't agree more. She offered a few of her own insights. "Many people use the same tactics their own parents used, and a lot of times that meant using really harsh discipline," she tells WebMD. A parent's relationship with his or her child will be reflected in the child's actions -- including child behavior problems, Natale explains. "If you don't have a good relationship with your child, they're not going to listen to you. Think how you relate to other adults. If you have a good relationship with them, you tend to trust them more, listen to their opinions, and agree...

...1.Know the structure of education from early years to post compulsory education. 1a) Summarise entitlement and provision for early years. Early year’s education is for children aged 3-5 years of age. It is used in nurseries and reception classes. Children aged 3 and 4 in England get 15 hours a week free education that the government funds to local authorities to make sure every child receives this before reaching school age. Early years provision is supporting young children. Learning through play is the key element and is used more in early years than a formal education. This is because play shows to be more helpful in a child’s early development. 1b) Explain the characteristics of the different types of school in relation to educational stages and governance. There are 4 types of mainstream state school community, foundation and trust, voluntary and specialist. These 4 types follow the national curriculum. Other types include Independent/Free schools and academies; these don’t have to follow the curriculum and are governed in different ways. Community schools Run and owned by local authorities and not by their governing body. The local authority will usually determine the admissions policy and support the school in looking at ways to develop links within the local community. They also provide support services to the school. Some community schools, local groups use school facilities to hold classes of their own. Foundation and trust schools Foundation schools are run...

...How has the Growth of the Internet Supported or Hindered Castells Concept of a Network Society? Castells concept of a network society is an interpretation of a ‘new society’, one which has developed from the earlier information society. Within this interpretation, Castells states how society has shifted from ‘vertically organized, rational and structured activities to networking forms of activity’. These networking forms of activity provide greater flexibility and adaptability as networks have the ability to organize resources and activities whilst reacting to the environment, transforming themselves rather than clashing with other structures (Castells, 1996). Castells concept explores the social, political, economic and cultural impact of network technologies and the implications of networking activities. According to Castells, the network society has evolved through a growth in networks, induced by new technologies including microelectronics, digitally processed information and communications technology. These technologies represent a new dimension in society providing a modern infrastructure supporting emerging networks. Whilst Castells explains a growth in social networks, he recognizes that they are not a new form of social organization but a ‘key feature in social morphology’. Therefore, rather than describing existing social networks, the network society highlights the impact of networks which manage information using modern electronic technologies. The...

...adult development theories to explain the relevance of these theories to health and social care practice. It is going to briefly summarise the of major theories used by health care professionals to provide care and determine practice related decisions. The discussion is going to focus mainly on the attachment theory, Bowlby, J (1969), Levinson, D (1986) theory of life structures and Erikson, E (1963)stages of life theory. According to Banks (2001), these theories are there to help health professionals describe or predict patterns and behaviour considered to be within the parameters of normality for human beings and assess the need for intervention. Some major theories used by health care professionals today embrace the works of Freud (1856) and Bandura (1925) who challenged the view of human development and human nature by suggesting that humans are driven largely by emotions and motives of the unconscious and , a social cognitive theorist who believed humans learnt from observation of other people rather than from a pre-disposed notion of biological (nature) influences irrespectively. From a psychoanalytical perspective, Freud devoted his research to the nature side of development, learning about the human unconscious mind and presenting a notion of stage development. Bandura on the other hand came from a nurturing perspective, believing people don’t go through stages of development but rather they learn from the environment and people within it....
