The teacher should always treat others fairly, without bias, and as an advocate for the student’s success in all areas of learning. * Supportive of the student using classroom observation and data information, as well as actual communication with the student, to help the student grow academically and socially. 2. How students are expected to behave: * They should arrive in time, well rested, and ready to work. * They should have a good attitude about what they are learning and strive for a full understanding.
Coaches must be open and honest with others. To be honest that person needs to be truthful when giving information. According to DuBrin (2005), "A starting point in developing a sense on honesty is to follow a variation of the Golden Rule: Be as honest with others as you want them to be with you." The coach that continually demonstrates their technical and professional knowledge shows the credibility of their skill and resourcefulness to teachers (DuBrin, 2005). Planning and selecting instructional strategies with cultural proficiency is required for the educational success of students of all cultures.
Certain curriculum goals of anti-bias curriculum are to foster each child's: *building of a well-informed, confident self-identity; *comfortable, empathic interaction with people from diverse backgrounds; *critical thinking about bias; * capability to stand up for themselves and for others in the face of unfairness. A belief in the importance of human diversity and the fair treatment of all people is a must for doing anti-bias work. When teachers become dedicated to learning how to implement anti-bias courses in their settings, they seem to go through four identifiable stages. ESTABLISHING THE ENVIRONMENT Stage one includes teachers raising their own consciousness of anti-bias matters related to themselves, their program, and the children in their care. A support group is vital for this method.
Functionalists are consensus theorists. They think of education as a positive function for all individuals in society, which has a powerful influence over it. The aims of education in functionalism are to maintain social stability, keep society in consensus and resolve any conflict. Durkheim and Parsons saw education as an essential agency of socialisation whose function is to transmit common values to the next generation. Parsons argued that schools act as a bridge between the family and a wide society within the role of education being to promote universal values such as achievement, individuation, competition and equal opportunities.
• Be healthy • Stay Safe • Enjoy and Achieve • Make a positive contribution • Achieve Economic well being. Rules builds up trust, a common standard for children and young people and I feel it is essential for young people to learn respect for others , self-control and social interaction with others. All schools have policies and they are not stand alone as they have to relate to Local Authority and national guidelines. e.g The Children's Act 2004. The reason for these policies are to promote positive behaviour and all schools have policies on : • Behaviour • Bullying • Child Protection • Equal Opportunities As a TA it is our responsibility to find out about the role of staff, rewards and sanctions and training.
Explain Ways to Promote Equality and Value Diversity Explain ways to promote equality and value diversity Equality and diversity can be endorsed by identifying the boundaries students may have. By identifying these potential barriers it will benefit the learning experience of an individual and as a group, and help overcome those boundaries a student may have. Teaching has to be structured to meet individual learner’s needs, using different strategies to promote comprehensive learning. In terms of Diversity, all the factors like gender, race, age, religion and other social needs have to be taken into account. All learners should be given equal rights to participate in all activities of learning regardless of age, sex, religion and race.
This will give parents a sense of purpose and belonging as their input will be welcomed, respected, and valued. Having a school parental involvement policy will promote positive attitudes towards school. It will provide opportunities to enrich the learning experience of the child, bringing together the resources of home and school. As a result there is less likelihood of the child noticing conflict between home and school. This will be because the parent and teacher will be seen to be working toward the same ends, although at times from different perspectives.
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.
It also allows them to increase the higher order of thinking within the lesson and bring it up to a level of understanding to where each child is challenged based on their own method of learning. Although the first competency of rigorous learning and planning the lessons are encouraged, another competency of this component is professional development. Professional development helps teachers with every aspect of their work environment. We incorporate professional development in our organization by attending all of our staff meetings, monthly grade level meetings, and in-district workshops. The professional development meetings inform the teachers of how to incorporate rigorous learning into their lessons and also explains what the district expects to see from the staff.
So, what is equality and diversity? How can it be defined and how can we ensure that we integrate an equality and diversity approach in to everything we do, particularly where children and young people are concerned, to teach them the value of difference? Equality enables us to create a fairer society where everyone can participate and has the opportunity to fulfil their potential. Equality is mostly backed by legislation which is designed to address unfair discrimination among members of a particular group in society, but it's everyone's responsibility to . Diversity is the recognising and valuing difference in its broadest sense.
