Before each assessment session the assessor will discuss with the learner and agree an assessment plan. The plan will clearly define what is to be assessed during that assessment and what activities will be carried out and/or documents created. The assessor will require learner to demonstrated competence over a reasonable period of time and that learner can reliably demonstrate the skills in the future. The assessor needs to plan with learner in order to choose the best method of assessments in relation to learner 's individual circumstances, for example taking into account any special requirements learner might have. Assessors must ensure that assesments are: valid, reliable, safe and manageable, suitable to learner 's needs.…

When I arrive to the service user’s home, I knock on the door and wait to be let in either by one of the service user’s or by a work colleague. Once inside I greet the service user, if they are awake. I then head to the sleep in room, to start verbal handover with my work colleague. After the 15 minute handover, I then check and sign the handover sheet. Check the on call rota, should there be an incident or or accident. Also check the communication book and also check any money and medication, then checking the activity planner. Once the service user wakes, we say hello to each other, and chat for a short period. I encourage them to start their personal care. After, I ask them if they need any support with getting dressed and preparing breakast. The time is now 8:00 so I administrer the morning medication.

I also waited for those who weren't as confident and let them take their time and waited for them to be done so that everyone was safe and I knew that they would be safe.…

    When I started my work placement at my setting I was working with my members of staff and manager who told me how to monitor children when they eat and which child cannot eat certain food because of their religion or culture. Before I started to give out the food for the children I had to read the food policies and procedures to know how to serve the food and drink for the children. At my placement I learnt how to monitor the children when they ate and how much they ate, and also about their allergies. I had to monitor how much the children drink and I had to make sure that they drink enough water or milk.…

The Every child matters documentation (Department for Education 2010) focuses on the important role of the adult in enabling children to make decisions and encouraging them to participate and make a positive contribution. As a result through this account, how children in my setting are encouraged to participate in the outdoor play space will be explored. A small piece of research was carried out which will be reflected on, as will theory relating to children making a positive contribution in the early years.…
