Competency Statement III To support social and emotional development and to provide positive guidance, I will supply children with an emotionally and physically safe and secure environment in which they will thrive, being able to develop their own sense of self. I will do this by smiling and greeting all children and their parents each and every morning. I will always address each child by their name. I will make sure every child gets some one on one attention when I can express appropriate physical touch and enjoyment in them being in my classroom. I will get to know each child, establish relationships with parents, and support their strengths as well as their needs.
I will always do a fun warm up which helps break the ice. I need to be approachable at all times during the class and if necessary before and after. A learner needs to know that they can ask questions at the appropriate time in a class and get the answer they need either from me or on occasions, a fellow learner. This makes the class interactive. Inclusion of all students is important.
Diversity is about recognising and valuing everyone’s culture, personality, age, race, sex, disability, gender, religion and beliefs. * Equality – treating people in a way that is appropriate for their needs. Making sure people are treated fairly and given fair chances. Recognise their needs and that they are met in different ways. * Inclusion – equal opportunities for everyone whatever their age, gender, ethnicity, to be included.
I believe that many students need motivations and reasons to do frequent studying, reading, and exercising; therefore frequent in-class exams will give them good reasons and motivations to start reviewing a chapter. Frequent tests will be more efficient in classes that require a lot of readings and memorizing, such as history, politic, geography, etc, because if a student procrastinate his reading until a night before the test, he will be overwhelmed. Another advantage from frequent exams is that students can use their returned exams that have been given feedbacks and the right answers for their study guides to prepare for their midterm or
Multi-disciplinary teams It is very important that everyone in a multi disciplinary team work in partnership. For the best results, all information must be available. This enables different disciplines to share their skills resulting in more effective support and outcomes for the child. Colleagues Working closely with colleagues and sharing information, such as observations, can add to a greater understanding of the child and their development. Working as a partnership helps to provide a good level
CYPOP 9 1.1 Explain the importance of providing accurate and up to date information and advice to children and young people. Young people should have accurate and up-to-date information about the range of opportunities available to them along with appropriate career information, advice and guidance (IAG) and any information to help support the decision-making process. All young people are entitled to the support that they need to move into a positive and sustained destination. All young people will have frequent opportunities to discuss their learning with an adult who can act as a mentor, helping them to set appropriate goals for the next stage in learning and provide suitable IAG when required. Involving young people in planning and reflecting on their own learning through assessment, evaluation and personal learning planning is essential and this is the responsibility of all practitioners regardless of the learning setting.
Inclusion This is a universal human right. It means to embrace all people irrespective of their differences to one another. It is about ensuring the same opportunities and rights are available to all people and putting a stop to intolerance and discrimination. Inclusive practice promotes equality by making sure each individual is offered the same opportunities and it supports diversity because of this. The three practices are interlinked and can not work without each other.
* Barriers are recognised and staff has an understanding of individuals and groups that have any difficulties so they can find the best way to help them. * When children need extra support they still get taught alongside their peers so as not to make them feel segregated. * There are clear policies that are reviewed on a regular basis and all staff will receive regular training on inclusion, diversity and equality. * All staff should be open minded and non-judgemental * All children and young people should be given the same opportunities 3.3 Describe how inclusion works in own sector of the children’s
Ways we can ensure standards stay high include providing excellent customer service, retaining good levels of communication, keeping them informed at all times, offer information in a professional manner, treating customers with a positive attitude and responding to customer feedback. Personal Development is important for all staff to consider regardless of the level at which they work. It is about taking note of aspirations and goals and planning a way of pursuing these. Those who make Personal Development plans tend to be healthier, happier, focused people. It is therefore important that all departments encourage their staff to work towards CPD and training and development
e. Explain: * the importance of inclusion and its link to the terms in “d” Inclusion links with diversity and equality.
