NCFE Level 3 Supporting Teaching & Learning in Schools

[los1972]

Hi, need some help please!!

Assignment 3, Task 5

Demonstrate how to identify potential hazards to the H&S and security of children and yp, families and other visitors and colleagues.

and

Task 11

Give example from own practice of supporting children or young people to assess and manage risk.

Not sure what evidence to show, can anyone help please??

Re task 5 I took pictures of hazards I identified around the school,and described why I believed it to be a hazard

In respect of task 11 I wrote about a situation in school were the children built an obstacle course by themselves and how I encouraged them to think about the safest place to set it up ( away from other children and on grass etc) and encouraged them to work out for themselves how to make it a bit safer without reducing their enjoyment etc

I passed the unit so it must have been ok!

Good luck - this course is hard going in parts !

Thank you! For task 5 I was thinking about marking out fire extinguishers/ routes etc on a floor plan which the H&S manager is getting me. For task 11 I am joining in a class as our school has a 2 day science day as part of the curriculum so I thought with the teacher we would discuss how the children can assess and manage the potential risk before they carry out any experiments. Just good timing I guess!!

I'm just finishing the last parts of Assignment 4 and have made some progress in 5. Maybe we could swap email address as there is loads of evidence for that assignment and swapping ideas would be great!

Can we swap emails addresses here or can we message each other?

Gosh you're doing well! Part way through assignment 4 and finding some it a bit tough in terms of evidence - but onwards and upwards! Going to try and get it completed by the end of next week - that's the plan anyway!!!

Do you think its ok to swap email addresses on here - it would be great to have someone to bounce ideas off - think my husband is getting a bit tired of me talking to him about it constantly !
