Learner Record Entry 6
How to implement
activities and practices that promote equality and value diversity in an ECCE
setting
In
my placement I looked the whole area of equality and the policy that stated how
parents were involved. They were
involved in promoting and development of local community. They have undertaken a number of successful
projects such as building of Community Centre, Development of Youth and Sports
activities and development of a Playground and the Astro Turf Pitch.
Everything the children needs are
available in the centre, like toys, materials and resources for activities,
also they can bring their own favourite toys.
Parents are welcome asks to help in their child development. Staff share also their time and moments
during the day. Although I have only few
visits in my ECCE setting placement, I know that parents are happy and know
that their children are in a good place, safe and secure.
The Centre has complete amenities
designed to meet the needs of all children including those with
disabilities. The children getting the
services are from different culture and employed also from different
culture. This showed that equality and
diversity were recognise, since they cater from completely different
background. Children brought their family picture and posted them on the wall
and everyone have an idea about each family.
They also employed a good, qualified and experience staff to help
children and follow the Aistear and Siolta standard.
Every room from creche to afterschool
were providing a different kind of toys for all ages, pictures of each child
with a date of birth and all their art work were posted on the wall or
displayed on top of the press. Children
also learn a nursery rhymes, action song and Christmas songs.
Staff
are aware that appropriate language used at all times and this clearly stated
in the Code of Behaviour Policy.
Everyone treated with respect and staff are always prepared to answer
unpredictable question children ask, because they it is answered could have a
big impact on the way children perceive things.
One time the boy complained that he was hit by another child, and the
staff asked what he wants another child to do to that he will feel ok. The boy replied shake hands, and the staff
ask the girl how we solve the problem.
Later on, after few attempts talking to girl to shook hands, she did
eventually. The boy shook hand with the
girl and the staff follow up if he feels ok, and said yes.
Every week there is a plan of
activities for children, below is taken from the Pre-school room.
