A brief history of vaccination The practice of immunisation dates back hundreds of years. Buddhist monks drank snake venom to confer immunity to snake bite and variolation (smearing of a skin tear with cowpox to confer immunity to smallpox) was practiced in 17th century China. Edward Jenner is considered the founder of vaccinology in the West in 1796, after he inoculated a 13 year-old-boy with vaccinia virus (cowpox), and demonstrated immunity to smallpox. In 1798, the first smallpox vaccine was developed. Over the 18th and 19th centuries, systematic implementation of mass smallpox immunisation culminated in its global eradication in 1979.
Zero Tolerance In the article entitled “No Mercy,” Malcolm Gladwell writes on the zero tolerance policies in our schools. The essay is an argument against zero-tolerance and a return for discretionary justice. He gives different examples to identify his position such as a Cambridge University student that attempted to poison his tutor, and a football quarterback that was cut from the team for being overpaid on his job. The author’s main point is whether zero tolerance policy is appropriate when disciplining students in the school system. Gladwell’s argument draws your attention to the fact that at some point in life children will be children and make stupid mistakes.
The method of this was Piaget hid a toy under a blanket while the child was watching, and studied whether the child searched for the hidden object. Looking for the toy was evidence of object permanence and Piaget believed that the child could only search for the toy if they had a mental representation of it. He found that children around 8 months old started looking for the toy and it is at this age that they have object permanence because they are able to from a mental representation of the object in their head. Many researchers had adopted the child’s looking as a measure of object permanence. For example, Bower had findings that proved that object permanence occurred in children well below 9 months old.
1.2 2.3 Children should be raised in positive circumstances by providing safe and caring environments. Parents or carers who fail to protect or care for their children could be to court and the child be then removed and placed in care. Wider forms of safeguarding also include risk assessments such as providing a safe environment inside and outside a school setting. Adhering to school policies, procedures and legistrations i.e. health and safety, fire drills and missing children.
• assess any staff’s understanding of policies and procedures. • look at the arrangemenets for making sure unvetted people do not have unsupervised access to the children. National Minimum Standards for Childminding (Wales) Standard 18 – Child protection Parents have the confidence that the childminder takes all reasonable steps to protect children from harm. 18.1 The childminder draws up and implements a child protection policy which links into the arrangements of the Local Safeguarding Children Board and ensures that any adults working and looking after children are able to put the policy into practice. 18.2 The childminder is aware of the appropriate Local Safeguarding Children Board guidance or procedures on child protection, and knows whom to contact if concerned about a child.
Design Brief You have been asked by a company that designs and manufactures children’s toys to help them produce a design for a new toy. The toy should: be educational be suitable for pre-school children improve hand-eye co-ordination. Do not write outside the box (02) TP/Jun10/45601 3 1 Question 1 is about the Design Specification. You are advised to spend about 5 minutes on this question. Give three design requirements for a child’s educational toy that will improve hand-eye
2. The Children Act (2004): Every child is an offshoot of an act that requires you to report any concerns you may have about children if you believe them to be at a risk of cruelty, abuse or neglect. 3. Health and safety at work Act (1974): It is your responsibility as a teacher to ensure that the teaching accommodation and educational visits are safe. 4.
However, this could cause confusion of sodium chlorate (V) with sodium chlorate (|) that is usually labelled as sodium hypochlorite. There have already been confusion that has been reported and if by mistake concentrated sulfuric (V|) is also used in place of hydrochloric acid, then the mixture could explode. Therefore CLEAPSS recommends and suggest that all school should not buy or have sodium chlorate (V) at all as this will stop having mixtures from exploding as well as confusion. The decision is that, the general advice that chlorate or sugar mixture should not even be made in schools. Jelly babies present themselves as a safe demonstration of the power of potassium chlorate as an oxidising agent.
Vaccination Timeline: 1976 First Vaccination for smallpox but was a dead end. After development of the knowledge of treatment (through Pasteur’s germ theory) and other honourable mentions there was a vaccination made against: Typhoid 1896 Tuberculosis 1906 Diphtheria 1913 Tetanus 1927 Whooping Cough 1952 Polio 1954 Measles 1964 MMR (Measles, Mumps, Rubella) 1988 Work of Domagk: In 1932 the second Magic Bullet was found when Gerhard Domagk discovered that one particular red dye was effective against some cases of blood poisoning. From this red dye Gerhard developed the drug Prontosil. The drug could save many lives because at the time many people became infected and died from simple cuts and bruises. Research shows that the key ingredient in Pronotsil was sulphonamide.
