This is supported by Cheminais (2003) who highlights that partnerships between mainstream and special enable both parties to learn from each other by offering great support and diversity to all pupils, enabling pupils in mainstream to develop greater awareness and understanding of such diverse needs, offering flexible pupil placements for those who need them, the sharing of resources/facilities, a more effective curriculum delivery through helping mainstream partners to implement inclusion policies and make effective use of teaching and non-teaching expertise. Interestingly Ainscow et al (1999) cited by Cheminais (2003) describe the process of partnership working and how developing such links can be useful for creating a positive role for special schools in supporting the deep changes in attitudes and practices that are needed to move towards greater inclusion. Ofsted (2001) supports this by recommending that the DFES continues to work with schools and LEA’s to ensure that mainstream schools have the ability to cater for pupils with complex and diverse SEN, enhancing productive links between mainstream and special schools (Cheminais,
The Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS), (2012) states that the role of the practitioner is crucial in observing and reflecting on children’s spontaneous play, building on this by planning and providing a challenging environment which supports specific areas of children’s learning and extends and develops children’s language and communication in their play. (See appendix 1 note 2) Another role of the practitioner is to work professionally and responsibly such as to ‘work as part of the team, work with parents and partners, participate in providing an environment that is welcoming and stimulating’ (Tassoni P, et.al, 2007 page 137) and to meet the learning needs of each individual child by providing a range of activities and experiences. A1 While attending placements I have worked to support the learning needs of children in this particular role by working with my supervisor, other staff members and parents or carers. When doing this, practitioners should always be professional, for example using a polite tone of

Level 5 Diploma in Leadership for the Children and Young Peoples Workforce-Early Years (Management/Advanced Practice) Unit 136 136.2,7 Through adult-led activities we can introduce children to new ideas, provide opportunities for them to develop their skills and ensure that they experience all six areas of learning in the EYFS. During adult-led activities we are in control of the teaching we are providing. However, what we cannot have any control over is what young children are learning from these activities. This is why it is important to balance adult-led activities with time and opportunity for children to explore their own ideas, play with resources and use their imagination and creativity. Through doing this and practising the skills that they have learned the children will be able to take ownership of their learning and be able to apply it in different situations.

support children's care, learning and development in the early years Outcome 1 1.1 Outline early years curriculum models supporting children’s care, learning and development. In Wales the Foundation Phase is practised. The Foundation Phase has seven areas of learning: * Personal, Social development, Well-being and Cultural Diversity * Language, Literacy and communication * Mathematics * Welsh * Knowledge and Understanding * Physical Development * Creative Development The Foundation phase promotes equality of opportunity, values and celebrates diversity with positive relationships with parents and carers and respecting their role as a child’s first educator. Opportunity is provided for children to explore their environment, appropriately challenging activities to help them develop their thinking and by using open ended questions, the principle is to provide a holistic approach to developing children’s skills allowing them to build on their previous experiences, knowledge and skills. We provide an experiential approach through activities and play opportunities, children can practice, learn to take and evaluate risk, solve problems, make decisions, work independently and as part of a team.
