Hi a warm welcome to the site.

SKAPW65 (A2) Develop and review policies and procedures to ensure they meet needs and protect the rights of children and young people

Developing any policy and its procedures involves knowing what information the existing ones contain and then being aware of the potential updates that might impact on them.

How are your setting's policies and procedures put into practice? are they reviewed frequently/annually to make sure they continue to meet regulations? How is that done?

Consider where & from whom you gather or receive information regarding play and social activities, health and safety, anti-discriminatory practice, child protection and bullying eg Local Authority, HSE, National organisations and charities (NSPCC, NCB, Play England, Skills Active, Citizen's Advice Bureau, ) and your knowledge of child development so that responses to behaviour are appropriate.

Understanding of the UNCRC and playwork principles ensure the policies reflect children's rights.

Page 117 of this handbook
looks at a behaviour policy in a playwork setting - search the preview for 'develop policies'

I hope this helps a little
