There are two basic methods that can be used to research the diversity in a community. The one broadly classified under “observational techniques” which can utilise methods such as direct observation of people in a certain place at a certain time and the collation of data through a tick box method counting style or it could involve questionnaires whereby willing bystanders or passers-by are questioned and the results recorded. This sort of data collation can be undertaken by a number of individuals which spreads the base area from which the data can be collected. Different events, venues and places can be researched in this way, large or very specific. Data such as gender, age, culture etc can be gathered using this method as well as the observation of venues such as clubs, shops, cafes etc.…

The care worker applies valuing diversity by not differentiating between different races. They ensure that they include all the children, no matter who or what race, religion or skin they are. This will make all the children think they are involved and part of the community For example, when the child raises their hand to answer a question for something a teacher has asked them to do. The teacher should not only pick one particular race or person but instead should pick a variety of people. As well as that children could make posters promoting their religion and cultures.…

Within my assignment I will cover the key issues surrounding Equality and Diversity and will also cover the professional principles underpinning practice in work with children and young people.

Equality is to create a more equal and fair society; to give people the chance of an equal opportunity.

It would be very discouraging for children to be subjected to discriminatory beliefs that are held by either myself or other teachers for example my cousin wanted to be a ballet dancer when he was a child but after teasing from other members of the family suggesting that dancing is only for girls and gay men he did not continue to attend classes. This was something that he regrets as it was a dream of his and now he has grown up he wishes he had been encouraged to dance. By taking any of families or, friends or even my own beliefs in to school is unfair on the children I am there to support. They could be made to feel that if because of their background or who they are means they cannot aspire to be what they want to be so will not reach to achieve their full potential.As with another example my father-in-law is sexist and believes that a woman’s place is in the home cooking, cleaning and looking after the children and if I was to take that to school with me I could treat the girls differently dismissing their work and only encouraging the boys, giving the girls the false idea of they are not good enough. For example: “Both men and women teachers have low expectations of girls intellectual skills’ since it is thought that girls are inherently less intelligent than boys” (www.right-to-education.org)The support I give the children should be fair…
The importance of inclusive practice, in promoting equality and supporting diversity. Inclusion is the opposite of discrimination, by promoting inclusion we are supporting equality and diversity and challenging discrimination. Being able to accept and understand each other’s culture, race and religion is vital to successful social integration and a productive working environment. Equality means all people have the same value. I believe we shouldn’t treat people the same way. We need to recognise that people are individual’s and each individual has different needs. Promotion of equality means promoting equal opportunities for the service user. As professionals we need to put the service user centre to any situation they may find themselves…
