When assessing a child you must be careful to take into account confidentiality before carrying out an observation you must have parents and the settings permission and not to leave confidential material lying around they must be secured in a locked cabinet.

Only talk to authorized personnel about confidential material. This confidentially can only be broken when a child is at real risk.

When carrying out observations you must take account of the child’s wishes and feelings if a child is upset or wants you to stop then you must stop.

Ethnic, cultural and linguistic backgrounds when we asses a child we must take account of their ethnic, cultural and linguistic back ground as these can play important roles in how the children acts and the understanding of the words being used.

Disability or specific requirements need to be taken in account when carrying out any assessment /observation or a child can be underestimated and the observation will be unreliable.

Reliability of information no one can get an accurate picture of development if the information is not accurate this can harm the child’s development and the underestimating of their potential. With observation we must understand the limitations of each type of observation method.

Avoiding bias when observing children we must remain completely objective also having 2 people observing the child at the same time can produce a more accurate account.


1.1. Factors that need to be taken into account when assessing development e.g.

• Confidentiality and when, for the safety of the child or young person confidentiality must be breached.
• Children’s wishes and feelings
• Ethnic, linguistic and cultural background
• Disability or specific requirements (Additional needs)
• Reliability of information
• Avoiding bias
