Describe the different transitions children and young people may experience. • Start Nursery: Starting nursery is very daunting for some children. They may not have been left by their parents or carers before and some children will show real distress. Children show distress at being separated from their carer by crying and refusing to join in with activities. • Change of school: Changing school is more likely to affect children’s feelings and emotional development.
Disorganized relationships. Disorganized children don’t know what to expect from their parents. Children with relationships in the other categories have organized attachments. This means that they have all learned ways to get what they need, even if it is not the best way. This happens because a child learns to predict how his parent will react, whether it is positive or negative.
If the child has had to change nurseries numerous times they could feel disorientated, they could become withdrawn and they could even regress. It is important to limit such changes in a child’s life at a young age as they are so easily effected by it. Supporting children correctly within their few days and/or weeks of transition into nursery is of utmost importance. Children may become very stressed and anxious during this time and in these cases tend to cry, be withdrawn and refuse to be involved in play and activities. There are many ways to assist the child to have a smooth
Denise Barnes Student Number DEBAR 1751 Unit 2.1 Explain how children and young people’s development is influenced by a range of external factors If a child has a family/home environment which is not stimulating or enriching this will cause the child to fall behind developmentally. Early childhood is the time when the brain develops most intensively. If the child’s parents do not interact or nurture a healthy attachment this will make them fall behind in their development. If they live within a stressful family environment they may experience learning difficulties. Friendships are formed as the child reaches the age of three, these friendships will have an influence on their behaviour and social skills.
Plus, a stressful family environment may cause a child to experience learning disabilities and possibly be of a high risk of a stress related illness. At the same time, various other elements within a child’s background may affect behaviour and development, these being; divorce, a new baby, diet, poverty and media to mention a few. Children of one parent families may suffer as the parent may work long hours leaving the child with very little support and possibly no role model to look up to. Divorce also can be very traumatic for a child. Children whose families have joined with another family and therefore have ‘step-family’ may experience unhappiness due to the child being picked on or feeling left out, this would lead to low self-esteem and they would quite possibly result in lack confidence in their own abilities.

Parents of English Language Learner (ELL) or English as a Second Language (ESL) students have significant communication challenges impacting their lives. Imagine how different your life would be if you spoke no English, and your child was in charge. Social cultural influences effect how all people interact with one another. Children raised in the dominant culture understand what type of behavior is expected in school and other social situations. At home families' traditions, discipline styles, attitudes toward education, and prejudices are very different.
It may be with the local authorities or a family relative or friend. If the illness is permanent and leaves the parent/ guardian unable to care for the child, then permanent care may be put in place. Child related reasons; Behavioural problems Children may need to be looked after as a consequence of their own actions. If a child’s behaviour cannot be managed and controlled by their parents/ guardians and is causing stress and ill health to anyone in the household then they may require them to be looked after by someone other than their parents/guardians. Learning difficulties Children with learning difficulties present their own problems and challenges; some families are unable to cope with these challenges and may place their child in respite care.
