I am really struggling with Unit 35. 4.1 and 4.2. Ways to work with parents & families in supporting cyp with scln but promoting positive behaviour. also the roles of other professionals involved in intergrated working to promote positive BESD needs of cyp. This is a big unit and I just can not think at the moment!!!! Any help will be really appreciated.

Hi, when you think of the way your setting works ..

what other professionals does it have contact with? do you make referrals to speech therapists, educational psychologists, maybe a behavioural support team? or maybe you consult these organisations or individuals so as to support the children in your unit? what are the professionals job titles and what do they do/their role?

How do you work with parents? do you arrange meetings, parent evenings, supply resources such as reading books, phonic sheets, activity ideas so children can understand the positive impact of being able to use speech and language to communicate their needs, feelings, ideas, and also in experiencing the language that enables them to retell and explain the happening of events?

Consider what you do with parents and how that ultimately supports children with SLC and their behaviour. For ages 11 to 17 please take a look at this page of talking point.org.uk http://www.talkingpoint.org.uk/ages-...es/11-17-years

What do the Year Team do ie. what's their role? (they'd be your other professionals involved in intergrated working to promote positive BESD needs of cyp)

do they or a member of the team ever ask you about children's speech, language, how they communicate and their behaviour? either face to face or through paperwork?

do you know if that information feeds through in anyway to how the Year Team speak with parents? what they suggest parents can do to support the child at home?

What happens if you have concerns about children's speech, learning, communication and behaviour? and what would happen if thought of an idea you felt would support the child when not in your room?
