This approach is also a very important part of the government framework of Every Child Matters which states that we should be working together to achieve the best possible outcomes for children in our care. The Early years foundation stage, states that different professionals working together will help to improve outcomes for children both in their learning and development.

By working together the outcomes for the young people in my care will be better than it would otherwise by working alone. This would include active involvement and sharing of care decisions. The staff can share and agree on the aims and processes of what is to be achieved and to come to mutual understanding of any disagreements with decisions that are to be made. There always needs to be clear communication, openness and honesty, trust and respect for all care staff working with the young people to ensure that the best outcomes are made for the young people

Explain why effective communication is important in developing positive relationships with children, young people and adults:- A positive relationship is one which will benefit the child, young person or adult and aid in their ability to gain positively from their environment. If you wish to have positive relationships you must remember you are a role model when working with children, young people and adults. A role model must be mindful, demonstrating daily your own effective communication skills with others. When communicating with others you must be considerate of how and when you approach them, you do not know what may be happening in their personal life. Positive relationships enable information to be communicated far more effectively.
Supporting Mental Health Early childhood is an important time in a child’s life to incorporate healthy habits and focus on wellness. Mental health is defined by Sorte, Daeschel, and Amador as a child’s ability to “understand and manage their emotions and behaviors, to function positively with others in age-appropriate and developmentally appropriate ways, and to form meaningful relationships (2011, p. 416).” Many things contribute to a child’s overall mental health. Biological factors such as genetics, temperament, physical and health quality all play a key part in a child’s mental health and development. Biological factors are unique to each child and are present at birth. Genetics consists of hereditary factors such as those that contribute to physical characteristics, and pace of development.
The schools` influence upon health The schools have a significant part in children`s development. It does not just help pupils with numeracy and literacy but also gives them the opportunity to learn about themselves, acquire social skills and spreads influential messages about health. Implemented health strategies such as varied diets, consisting of fresh fruit and/or salad, breakfast clubs and/or lunch, fitness, activities such as PE, dance lessons, football, yoga, netball and so on, and health education, which in the past few years has been included in the national curriculum as Personal, Social and Health Education (PSHE) that intends to develop children`s health preparing them for a healthy adulthood. The capacity of schools to intervene in health can be affected by numerous factors, one good example being the decisions taken by the government. The part schools play in relation to health is always prone to change which can cause both positive and negative effects.
Now I know that understanding the stages of child development helps parents and teachers know what to expect and how to support the child during growth and development. I am inspired by so many different programs offered to support children and their families by accessing them to quality health care, good nutrition, and education. Also the availability of programs to protect children and their families from harm, abuse and discrimination and to help them reach their full potential. It is especially comforting to know that educators are stepping up to the plate to ensure that this

Group workouts, particularly are a fun way of engaging the children in various kinds of exercise and enriching them with knowledge pertaining to health and wellness. Additionally, there are multiple life lessons and personal values kids can learn from the spirit of teamwork- self esteem, self concept, social interaction skills amongst others. One of the values I have learnt through collective workouts is inspiring and drawing inspiration from other members to be a fitter and better
