Longitudinal study - Permission form
 

Hello all

I'm just embarking on my longitudinal study for my level 3 EYE course. I need to write up a permission form for parents to sign so I have consent to carry out the study on their child. Does anyone have a template they can show me as I'm struggling to think of how to write it up? I'm a childminder so I don't have access to a big setting for advice.
Many thanks

Hi a warm welcome to the site. Being independent means you can use the wording of the study to draw up your own permission form and then align it with any policies & procedures you already have in place.

Consider who - name, how old - age/DOB, contact - address/email/telephone, how long the study will last - dates, where and how frequently observations will be made - times, what type of information will be recorded, who it will be shared with, where the information will be stored, if photographs are involved and why you want to undertake the child study - so you can comply with the data protection act.

You could also ask your tutor or CM network to see if they have any pro forma sheets?
