The main key to establishing respectful and professional relationships with children and young people is to show respect at all times. A relationship built on a mutual understanding of respect can be a strong relationship that will make communication easier. You also need to show them that you are approachable so that they feel comfortable around you and if they have any questions or are struggling with the lessons work they can talk to you about it. A good practitioner will always listen to a child, without interruption, and let them express their own views this shows them that you are considerate to and that you value their feelings and opinions, which in turn will encourage them to interact with you. The way you talk to a child can also contribute to establishing a respectful and professional relationship as it is as important as listening.

Explain why effective communication is important in developing positive relationships with children, young people and adults. In order to explain why effective communication is important in developing positive relationships with children, young people and adults, we must first know and understand why effective communication is important. How we can communicate effectively and how we can develop and maintain positive relationships by effectively communicating. Communication is a two way process. In school and social life effective communication is important as it helps us to develop and maintain positive relationships.
Explain why effective communication is important in developing positive relationships with Children Young people Adults Ans: Importance of effective communication with Children Communication is a key factor in developing positive relationships with human beings,the importance of effective communication with children can never be denied. Being a teaching assistant ,you have to model yourself in a best possible way to communicate with children as they learn and absorb your methods of communication. In order to develop and maintain positive relationships with children ,I have to communicate politely and clearly so that they can understand me. By using simple vocabulary and positive body language I can get their attention more easily and my friendly approach would make me trustworthy for them and they can discuss their problems or share their ideas with me. For example,in my placement,my friendly and polite attitude towards reception children makes it easy for them to bring their complaints to me;if they are hurt or hit by somebody.
Learning outcome 1.2 Explain the principles of relationship building with children, young people and adults We help children to learn the value of positive relationships in many ways. We promote and reward positive behaviour, encourage turn taking, we ensure we are good role models, we encourage sharing and build self esteem of the use of praise and reward.

It is also important to listen and to use positive body language (may be shown by nodding etc) use the appropiate facial expressions and give eye contact. Adults need to show positive relationships with each other in front of children and young people so that the child can copy this behaviour as it will demonstrate what is expected and acceptable in relationship building. If good commincation exsisits between everyone involved (the child,the staff and parents/ carers) it may prevent misunderstanding and unnecessary worry. Developing a positive relationship with children is the main key to a happy and calm enviroment. Without a supportive and positive attitude there will be no trust and honesty between yourself and the
Maintaining a relationship with someone is very important also as it keeps you in contact with others. It keeps you in touch with the feelings and needs of others, which is essential in any functional relationship. This is very important when working with children as you need to be informed as to their needs, in order to have a happy work environment. Again, I believe this leads back to the issue of trust. If children can approach you with a problem (without hesitation) then I would class this as a good relationship.
Unit 3 3.1 To establish a respectful and professional relationship with children and young people a LSA will need to: • Adapt the way they communicate for the age group they are working with. • Develop mutual respect. • Should show respect and interest in the children or young people they are working with by asking questions, listening to them without interrupting and speak to them in a positive and polite manner. • LSA should model the behaviour expected from pupils, for example listen when the teacher is speaking • Apply the behaviour policy fairly and consistently so that the children feel they are being treated fairly. • Call the children by their name, which shows they are valued.
