Help with implementing legislation!!!
 

Hello there :))
I am honestly stuck on how practitioners can implement health and safety legislation on childcare practice?
The question is: Summarise the implications oh health and safety legislation on childcare practice?
Please anyone help, as my teacher is not replying my emails and i can't get textbooks from my sixth form either :(( feeeling out at seafeeeling out at sea

Have you identified the legislation needed for this? This can give you a really good idea of then seeing how they influence practice.
For example: The Food Hygiene Regulations 2006 (england) means that staff handling food need to be trained, storage/preparation must be done to certain standards etc

Hope thats of some help.

The first question asks me to talk about 3 laws related to childcare practice. I have done that i choose: Childcare act 2006, Control of substances, Hazardous to health Regulations 2002(COSHH), and the last one is RIDDOR.

But then there is this question and i feel like i am going to repeat myself. How would they implement these laws. hmmmm :?

I think the repitition is a massive part of the course to be honest (at least thats how i feel!)
So knowing what these laws mean how do they work in the setting?
COSHH - where do you keep items like cleaning products?
RIDDOR - what happens if there is an accident?
Childcare Act - as this is so huge there is loads to chose as examples, first aid trained staff, ratios, risk assessments? all these, and more, come from this act.

Is that of any help?

oh wow. i think i really understand it now. thanks so much. i can finally get started on this :))))))

Hi. I am stuck on another question.
"Describe the effects of abuse on a child's holistic development at the age of 6 years".

I do understand that i need to explain the effects of abuse short term and long term. But I have done so much research. I can't seem to find anything on this. :((

In the specification it also says that i can write about cycle of abuse, and self-depreciation. But i don't understand what any of those term means. Please anything will help. This is the last bit of coursework i have left for summer and i really want to get this finished!!!
