INTRODUCTION
Supporting children's successful participation
Assessment 1 (Assignment)
Question 1 (Behaviour)
Answer I: The inappropriate behaviour of the children is demonstrated, when they always keep
crying. For an example, developmentally appropriate behaviour that is common and then older
children to display sexual behaviours, and sexual behaviours that were rare that in some
instances, sexual behaviour problems are better understood. The behaviour comes from an
indiscipline activity. In addition, when the children's always wants their parent's attention and
does not involve with other kids then it will create thinking of stubborn. At the same time, when
children's shows positive concern towards the learning activity than it is considered as an
effective way to enhance their learning. For instance, a child highly is reactive to frustration may
act aggressively which is inappropriate in centre. For this behaviour, the solution is to remain
clam, gentle and quiet towards child in order provide him alternative solutions of not being
getting frustrated.
Answer 2: The parenting style of western families will help in developing open thinking among
the children without any restrictions. Although, not all the western families culture and thinking
is broad enough whereas the parenting style of traditional family is opposite to the western
family. It is because there are more restrictions and less freedom to the children 's. Thus, it can
be said that different families have various culture, mind-set and thoughts which has an impact
on children activities. For an example: Permissive parents are not demanding and also do not
expect compliance with stringent rules or elevated standards. Such types of parents are warm
and responsible and sensitive towards needs or concern of their child. They do not develop
capacity to regulate their child.
Authoritarian parenting also coincides with expectation of compliance with rules and
high standards. These parents discourage dialogues about inflexibility, rules and exhibiting.
Answer 3: The challenging behaviour identified was related to childhood activities which
produce so much pampering attitude in the future. The parents are always ready to fulfil the
demands of their children at first call only. My parents were very sensitive towards me and
always take care of my needs. They always teach me to live in discipline from my childhood
such as obeying others, activities that are necessary to be done on time etc. this have a great
positive impact on my present values and beliefs that now in take things seriously and complete
1

my work on time. When I was I child, my parents usually treat me very sensitively whenever I
got angry of anything. This influences my current practices in positive way regarding guiding
children behaviour. My values are aligned to accept teaching of behaviours in education care
effectively.
Answer 4: The parents are always ready to fulfil the demands of their children at first call only.
This makes the children's stubborn, which creates negative impact on their future as well. Thus,
the development expectations of the parents must be changed little for enhancing the lifestyle
and learning of their kids. The challenging behaviour identified was related with the parents so
much pampering attitude towards their kids. The challenging behaviour I faced from a student is
biting others. Whenever, he gets angry, he bites others on hand or anywhere. I responded him by
providing information that biting may cause you infection and saw him some pictures of
infection which looks terrible. Suddenly, he realises that it can be him and from then he stops
biting others.
Question 2 (Respectfully guiding behaviour)
Child 1:
Name of early learning centre: Middle ridge Centre. Date of observation: 03/07/2017
Child's name Child's age: Amali, 3 years’ old
Time: 10 am
Adult/ child involved in incident: Miss Joanna and Sarah as Educators
Environment Indoor
Amali demonstrates lonely behaviour and the behaviour shown by their antecedents was
positive. She was sitting alone and reading book. While reading the book may be some thoughts
came into her mind and then she was likely to be feeling lonely. It can be easily identified
through her activities in classroom that she sits alone, work alone and everything mostly do
alone. The behaviour of child was assessed by her lifestyle and the response towards the
behaviour was corrected by involving Amali with other fellow members in understanding
2

sharing and caring factors. The technique such as playing games with other children was
implemented.
Child 2:
Name of early learning centre: Middle ridge Centre. Date of observation: 06/07/2017
Child's name Child's age: Sarah B. 3 years’ old
Time: 2 pm
Adult/ child involved in incident: Miss Joanna and Sarah as Educators
Environment Indoor
Sarah shows shy behaviour which can be easily determined through her activities and the
behaviour shown by their antecedents was positive. The behaviour of child was assessed by her
daily routine and the response towards the behaviour was corrected by frequently talking with
Sarah and involving Sarah with peers. The technique such as involving the child in different
activities and sharing the personal experiences was implemented in order to increase taking that
helps to reduce shyness.
Child 3
Name of early learning centre: Middle ridge Centre. Date of observation: 06/07/2017
Child's name Child's age: Finn, 3 years’ old
Time: 12 noon,
Adult/ child involved in incident: Miss Joanna and Sarah as Educators
Environment Indoor
Finn demonstrates angry behaviour on casual activities the behaviour shown by their
antecedents are negative. The behaviour of child is assessed with the help of personal
observation and that time she was just about to fight with her friend that an argument already
took place. The response towards the behaviour is corrected by satisfying the needs of the child
on time and understanding the frustration issues and where Finn is in fault (e.g. Pulling away
3

others toys) will explain to Finn that where other behaviour like sharing will be better. The
technique such as fun activities, role play, etc. was implemented to teach good behaviours to
Finn through play.
Question 3 (Collaborative Behaviour Guidance Plan)
Answer 1: The long term goal for Collaborative Behaviour Guidance Plan (CBGP) is to solve
fights and issues responsibly.
Answer 2: The short term goal for Collaborative Behaviour Guidance Plan (CBGP) is
ascertained the work under the tutor activities to solve fights and issues responsibly.
Answer 3: The objective of Collaborative Behaviour Guidance Plan (CBGP) is to create strong
relationship with other students in classroom.
Answer 4: The baseline for the behaviour is achieved by evaluating the needs students. It is
attained by an individual from family, relatives and surroundings. It is compared with other
individuals on the basis of their behaviour parameters.
Answer 5: The behaviour will be monitored and evaluated by supervising as well as through
personal observation.
Answer 6: The alternative behaviour is related with psychology behaviour, passive aggressive
behaviour, communication behaviour, deficit behaviour, excess behaviour, emotional behaviour
etc. There are different strategies implemented in different types of behaviour associated with
Individual for carrying out multiple activities. The behaviour of the individual is also
documented during the process.
Answer 7: The communication with children is created by developing friendly environment and
involving them in different activities such as playing, studying or other group activities in order
to communicate positive behaviour.
Answer 8: The supporting and communicating with other students and help of various
techniques such as group discussion, brain storming etc. helps in implementing the plan, within
the predetermined time framework.
Answer 9: The plan is revisited or reviewed, when there is any deviation or errors in the process.
During the implementation process there are various problems related with allocation of
4

resources stage and was corrected. The corrective steps were taken for reviewing the process for
achieving better results.
Answer 10: The learning outcome from the Collaborative Behaviour Guidance Plan (CBGP)
was related to the standard quality results. The early year learning framework helps in enhancing
the skills and knowledge of the child in the initial stage only. For an example, the Collaborative
Behaviour Guidance Plan aligns in supporting the outcome because standards results are
achieved on time.
Answer 11: The children are involved in the development, implementation and evaluation
process of the CBGP. It is done at the time of evaluating their behaviour and lifestyles for
developing different plans as per their needs and requirements.
Answer 12: The family is involved throughout the development, implementation and evaluation
process of the CBGP by involving them in the decision making process. The collaborative
partnership with family in developing, implementing and evaluating the CBGP is very effective
because it assists in collecting the ideas and thoughts in decision making process from others. In
addition, the internal and external professional also helps in providing technical knowledge to
the conceptual framework. The alternative behaviour will help and support children to overcome
with their negative behaviour which is essential for a discipline behaviour in the classroom. It is
done with the help of supervising technique for measuring the effectiveness of the plan.
Question 4 (Children as effective communicators)
Answer 1: To build positive relationships with others, children need to develop 'social
competence' and the ability to interact with others with care, empathy and respect. Social
competence is the foundation that allows children to understand and self-regulate their own
emotions and negotiate their interactions with others. At the same time, relationship based
strategy will support in learning about the behaviour of parents and children's. The relationship
is necessary for identifying the strengths and weakness of the individuals. Moreover, the
effective relationship helps in improving the interaction level and increase the involvement rate
5

of the individuals in the programs. It is necessary for the parents to develop strong relationship
with the child so that they can take vital decision about their future. There should not be any
manipulation in the facts because it affects the coordination level among the parties involved.
Encouraging them to use a range of communication strategies to express their need, want and
feeling. In addition to this, helping them to deal with conflict constructively and develop a sense
of empathy for others. However, teachers play an important role in helping families support and
guide their child's behaviour in positive and effective ways. An adult learning strategy in which
the coach promotes the learner's ability to reflect on his or her actions as a mean to determine the
effectiveness of an action. The relationship based strategy such as building trusting relationship
with the children's will be helpful in developing strong bonding.
Question 5 (Involving children)
Answer 1: The United Nations Conventions have set up various rights for the children's in their
best interest. The protection of rights involves assessing the social services, legal parameters,
health and educational system for enhancing the learning capabilities of the children's. The
article of UNCRC describes about Survival rights include the child’s right to life and the needs
that are most basic to existence, such as nutrition, shelter, an adequate living standard, and
access to medical services. For an example, children with disabilities are provided with such
services. It covers major points such as respect for human rights, freedom, parents, cultural
identity, language, natural environment etc. The article helps in understanding the framework
associated with the children's in the environment.
Answer 2: The quality measures in the educational framework helps in providing effective study
material to the children for fostering growth in the future. The standards tools and techniques are
used by professors to enhance the values in the children are aligned with protection rights such
as ensuring children are safeguarded against all forms of abuse, neglect and exploitation,
including special care for refugee children; safeguards for children in the criminal justice
system. The elements related with National Quality Standard are educational program and
practices with the support of collaborative partnership with the families and communities. The
professional staffing arrangements are done for maintaining quality in the specific standards for
achieving the results on time.
Answer 3: The professional practice aligns with the regulation 155 i.e. interaction with children
from the education and care services national regulations. It outlines the policies associated with
6

code of conduct at the time of providing effective services to the children's. In addition, the
knowledge and competency framework for the child growth and learning is underlined for
achieving the targets on time. This can be aligning with effective practices such as information
and education system can be increased by providing examples of different people living in
various countries with nature, religion and culture. The motivation and other techniques is used
such as regular supportive feedbacks, positive and reward system for good behaviour in order to
participate in decision making and planning at service effectively. Proper care is provided to the
children's for making their future bright and prospering.
Question 6 (Additional needs)
Answer: Behavioural or psychological disorders
The Behavioural or psychological disorders is determined in the children which is Clinical
depression, it is a metal disorder in which children loose interest in activities. The additional
need relevant to Clinical depression children is done by changing their mind set form one think
to another or involving them into different practices. It is important to focus on children's
strengths and learning opportunities to increase the participation, within the early learning
environment will be done by setting participation and group activities.
Answer 2: Children at risk of harm
The children at risk of harm require more attention level of the parents and teachers in terms of
extra needs. The need relevant to these children's will be done by keeping the child and engaging
him/her in multiple activities with other kids. From any kind of abusing than the standards tools
and techniques will be helpful in protecting the children's from hazardous things. In addition,
increase in the participation, within the early learning environment will be achieved through
frequently supervising the child under different scenario. For an example, if a child is depressed
with mental situation such as depression or tensed then he can harm himself by hitting or biting
himself. Additional needs such as supportive and positive behaviour with children will help to
involve them as a participator in all activities. The special care will be required for helping them
to carry the routine activity.
Answer 3: Family circumstances and needs
The family circumstance and needs will be analysed through behaviour and lifestyle of an
individual. Moreover, the supervising techniques also assist in analysing the needs of the child
7

under different situation. For an example, a child belongs to a poor family should be supported
with some extra benefits such as no extra costs for further studies, reducing some fee and
participation in activities. The need of children's will be assessed at the time of group activities
and their behaviour will be analysed be developing interaction section. Family can be
encouraged for the bright future of children in order to increase his participation.
Answer 4: Health
It is required to give due consideration on the health parameters of the children's for keeping
them protected from different diseases. The health framework will be analysed with the support
of medical examination and reports. The unhealthy child will require moiré precautions and
safety measures as compared with the healthy child. Any kind of disease can be occurred to
children so as Asthma that does not mean children will not participate. For an example, child
with asthma, needs extra relevancies such as not much force to participate in sports activities,
proper medication is available in institute etc. This will help him to take participation in
activities which do not consider much physical activities such as chess, music etc.
Answer 5: Physical, sensory or developmental disability
The physical, sensory or developmental disability also requires attention level from the parents
and teachers. It is because these types of children's face more problems in carrying out day to
day activities such as playing, talking, moving etc. It will be assessed with the help of personal
observation technique and requires voluntary participation from them to overcome the issue and
enhance the skills and knowledge. Participation from a physical handicapped child is also
included because he or she is also a part of participation activities. For an example, student with
physical disability should provide with additional needs such as some extra benefits in terms of
water, food and other facilities to attend activities such as wheelchair. This will help him to take
participation in activities such as modified sports, arts and crafts, skate park and cooking etc.,
the healthy environment should be developed for enhancing the learning abilities of the
children's.
Question 7 (Special rights for access and participation)
Answer l: This activity may look like a relationship building process in practice, when
supporting the access and participation for a child that may have additional needs. The proper
8

coordination and interaction is created with the children's for evaluating and monitoring the
performance of the kids. The room set up will be effective enough to access indoor as well as
outdoor activities for both normal and disable children. The room is designed effectively that
disable students are able to ensure inclusion to children with additional needs and requirements
effectively such as modified toys and equipment private space, model appropriate behaviours,
developing extra abilities towards talking etc.
Answer 2: This may look like a collaborative activity, when supporting the access and
participation for a child that may have additional needs. This will also involve visual aids such
as pictures in order to deliver effective information. Family interaction will help to provide
information to them about student weaknesses, strengths and potential needs in order to support
inclusion effectively.
Answer 3: It will be supportive in an early childhood education and care service by creating no
differentiation in the gender, sex, race, caste etc. The creation of equal opportunity will help in
achieving the effective results. In addition to this, providing information of different cultures,
religions and other activities such as songs, music will help to assess diverse range of activities.
Answer 4: It will be created with the help of specialized tools and techniques used for providing
high quality services to the children under ethical and legal framework. The interaction process
will help to ensure that the rights of family as well as children are meeting effectively. With the
help of family interaction, the teachers are able to know they can exercise their rights within the
service that teachers are able to provide information regarding exercises that are possible for
families to keep in practice within the services. It can be said that teachers are known of children
additional needs and families can exercise these needs and rights within services effectively.
Question 8 (Developing a plan of inclusion to support participation)
The Inclusion Action Plan outlines the steps Council will take over the next 4 years to
support and improve the inclusion of people with a disability as part of its core business, and to
remove barriers to access and participation, including any discrimination based on disability.
Answer 1: The plan regarding the collaboration process will be built through active participation
in the conversation. The proper communication with the children's and their parents will help in
developing strong relationship and implementing the plan by sharing information which is
essential, within the predetermined time framework. In addition, proper consultation program
9

will also support in sharing and listening the queries of the parties involved. Collaboration
process, sharing information with the child’s family and other educators to develop and
implement the plan.
Answer 2: The investigation will be done by supervising the implemented strategies to address
the individualized needs of the child and their family. The strategy such as personal observation
and Process to investigate and trial strategies to address the individualised needs of the child and
Their family will also be helpful in evaluating the needs of the individuals in order to determine
various requirements of a child for next few years in order to develop and improve.
Answer 3: The reviewing of process will be done by examining each step in detail and taking
corrective steps for eliminating the errors. In addition, the effective services will be delivered
through proper technical and mechanical support of different components.
Answer 4: The identification and assessment process for children's additional needs starts with
the examination of social or behavioural needs, communication skills, cognitive or learning
skills and physical or sensory skills. This will be done by monitoring work done by student at
workplace accordingly.
Answer 5: The additional resources or sources of information to assist in the development and
adaption of the curriculum to support access and participation will be obtained with the help of
research. The needs will be evaluated by examining the behaviour, lifestyle and value of an
individual. This information collected through external resources and tools will help to access
participation effectively. This will help and support the participation and other access activities
for children effectively.
