For example, it may ruin the feeling of safeness in the school environment for that student. It can even inhibit their ability to excel in academics. In an article written by Elisha Mcneil, it states: A growing body of evidence highlights the connection between adverse childhood experiences and academic problems. The effects of trauma can impair a child’s cognitive ability, while the stress of a dysfunctional or unstable home life can make children act out or shut down in the classroom. In a way, I think that a school not being trauma-informed almost creates an unsafe environment for the student.
Ass 1 Task 4; Explain how children and young people`s development is influenced by a range of external factors. Some external factors that could influence children are; childcare arrangements, family, poverty previous education and where they live. If a child has been taken into care or has been moved around a lot this child could be unsettled and they might misbehave as they are afraid of rejection. This could also happen if a child`s parents separate the child would feel under pressure to choose a parent or that a parent might leave.

According to the IDEA this is one of the Special Education categories of listed disabilities. There are indeed some students who do display inappropriate behaviors that are undesired in the school district, and even behaviors that parents express are unwanted. Some of these behaviors are the inability to stay on task, escaping from work that may appear to be too difficult for the student to do, and negative responses for attention purposes. Within the contents of this paper explanation on the importance and components of a Functional Behavior Assessment (FBA) and Behavior Support Plan (BSP) will be given, as well as description of when a student will need a FBA and BSP will be identified. One important fact to remember is that according to IDEA facilitators are required to perform a FBA in order to observe the student and discover the determining factor to the displayed behaviors.
Schools offer lots of support to children with learning difficulties such as one to one lessons to keep the child up to date on their education like the other children. Children with learning difficulties don’t always realise they are different to other children and can make the child feel left out. Bullying Children being bullied will lack in education because instead of studying on work they will be too scared of the bully it will play on their minds taking the concentration off work. They might also have no friends because the other children may also be scared of this bully and don’t want to get involved, this can lower the child’s self-esteem and can cause a long term impact on their lives such as turning into a bully themselves when their
this impacts on the life chances of the young person because they may not be able to fully put their trusts in the adults around them because of all the new changes they have gone through. They may struggle to ask for help in later life and rely on themselves more. A young person may have moved schools which will interrupt their education and mean they will not do so well in class and could become disruptive to other pupils. A young person may become resentful of their parents and communication could of broken down, and this could to lead to them having negative feelings about themselves. This could mean that a young person turns to drugs or alcohol and not be able to access higher education or get a good job.
If a parent is always stressed and worried there child will sense this and not feel as loved as a parent who is more warm and comforting. This does not mean that a parent doesn’t love their child but the way they are each emotionally will have an effect on their level of attachment. A child’s temperament can be shown at a very young age you will see this in the child’s level of activity, emotionally and socially. If a child is always upset and crying when they are at daycare or with a caregiver this will also affect their level of attachment it will be much harder for that child to be cared for and the love and comfort a child needs will not meet as the child’s temperament is affecting this attempt for attachment. A child’s temperament can affect a child's choice of activities and environments.
It is often at this point that they become labelled as troublemakers. They get excluded from schools which can further encourage negative behaviours and so the circle continues. This can often affect the young persons ability to form and maintain relationships and can even ultimately have an impact on their mental health. Many young people don’t understand themselves what help they need, that coupled with possible communication

Learning difficulties - a child that has a learning difficulty such as dyslexia may find it hard and frustrating, especially if they are reading as a class this may lead to behavioural problems or even not wanting to go to school which would then affect their development. 2.2 How children and young people’s development is influenced by a range of external factors Poverty and deprivation - how and where a child grows up can have an effect on their health development they may have medical problems like asthma.
Child and Young Person Development 1.2 Describe how physical development might impact upon social and emotional development * If a child spends a lot of time in hospital, they will miss out on socialising with friends and may fall behind with interacting. * If a child has speech problems such as being short tongued, they might lack confidence and not attempt to make conversation with others. * If a child has hearing problems, they may lack confidence and not engage in conversation with others for fear of having difficulty with doing this. Any physical disability will lower a child’s confidence in playing with other children and interacting with others and therefore their social skills will suffer. According to Burnham, “If pupils suffer poor health or a physical disability/impairment, this may restrict their development opportunities.” 1.2 Describe how physical development might impact upon communication and intellectual development * If a child suffers with visual problems, they may not be able to develop their reading skills at the same rate as other children and my not contribute in group reading activities.
For example the child may become disliked by the young peers which may cause the child to feel isolated and may not feel comfortable enough to work with others in class to do group work.
