Every Child Matters framework has had a wide ranging impact of provisions for children and young people nationally. As part of this and community cohesion, schools have been developing roles such as after school clubs and extended schools programmes, all of which are inspected by Ofsted. The school will also need to develop their own policies in line with the national requirements for such areas as child protection and safeguarding children. C) Explain the roles of other organisations working with children and young people and how these may impact on the work of school There are a large number of organisations that work with children and young people, so it makes sense that they should liaise with each other, sharing their knowledge and experience.

Early years provision in schools is about supporting very young children. It distinct that the concept of learning for Key Stage 1 is based through play rather than more formal education, as play has been shown to be an important vehicle for children’s early learning. In England schools, the foundation curriculam runs from the ages of 3 to 5 years and is used in Receptoin classes and nurseries. Early Years Foundation Stage was revised in September 2012 and sets out one standard framework for learning, development and care for all children from birth to the end of reception year.

If you are able to communicate effectively with colleagues, parents, children and young people you are able to build strong relationships within all sectors of your work place including different professionals such as other teachers, doctors, nurses and the authorities. Communication in the work setting varies from one-to-one interactions with a child or a parent, group interactions with the children and staff meetings.
