Hi, not like you have sorry. Did you reply to your tutor? is it EYMP 4 unit regarding professional practice in early years settings? they'll be able to offer you the research you need to read in order to know what to write about.
Please try to secure a handbook, there's supportive reading on
page 280 of the Heinemann learner book for this.
QUOTE from an alternative handbook -
Collins
Evidence based practice
The fact that early years care and education frameworks are based on the findings of the research projects mentioned above* has been an important factor in convincing the government and public of the importance of the early years. This is what is meant by evidence-based practice. The frameworks are based on the findings of acknowledged, stringent research projects.
* EPPE, REPEY, KEEP, Equality act 2010, UNCRC, Early years framework eg. England's EYFS
What you've written about links to a way you
'support positive behaviour' but you need to look more at the why rather than the details of how. eg 'In our setting we implement (EYFS 2014?) a framework influenced by research and guided by law. It states 'quote pg 8:
Personal, social and emotional development involves helping children to develop a positive sense of themselves, and others; to form positive relationships and develop respect for others; to develop social skills and learn how to manage their feelings; to understand appropriate behaviour in groups; and to have confidence in their own abilities.
All that is underpinned by research that has evidenced why it's beneficial for children to develop in these ways -
ECM and best outcomes
Maybe go on to explain how your setting does this eg. the ideas we have for helping children to manage behaviour are about valuing each other, sharing, turn taking, negotiation and communication. We have a report book for incidents and work closely with our parents to support children in all their environments. See what your setting's policy and procedures say about your role in this.
Another strategy you almost certainly encounter daily is parent partnerships - EYFS/ and other frameworks recognise the research behind why parent partnerships are important. Maybe look at how you and your setting's parents work together?
Early years frameworks take their recommendations from a number of influences and the research conducted by Charles Desforges; The impact of parent partnerships.
Another is valuing training opportunities, appraisals, your own professional development and consistency, this links to
KEEP key elements of effective practice which is a publication that brings together findings from the EPPE and REPEY research and looks at what makes for high quality, effective early years provision.
I hope this helps a little more
