How does your setting ensure that children and young people's participation and engagement is reflected in the way you plan and assess -
look over things and come to preliminary conclusions?
Maybe approach this by looking at the evidence you may be able to generate?
eg.
• What evidence could you produce to support children enjoying where they are?
A floor plan that shows a room layout that children have helped develop.
A roaming approach where the environment is designed for children's free indoor/outdoor access.
Resources that promote & support children selecting their own resources
Are there blocked off or restricted areas that impact on how children view their setting's venue.
Decoration of the building, positioning of fixtures & fittings
• What evidence could you produce to support the way planning & assessment reflects children's contributions made through play ..
Observations of personal interests
Evaluations from focussed activities
Friendship groups
If you have knowledge of other setting's practice, professional's suggestions, ideas that can help challenge what you're most familiar with, it can help identify alternative ways of doing things or reinforce the way things currently happen.
Hope this helps ..
