Case Study
You have a little girl of 2 in your setting who wears callipers. She is walking but is a little unsteady. This is the first disabled child you have had in your setting and none of the staff seem confident in caring for her and do not know how much they should challenge her to do things for herself.
- Which agencies and organisations might be able to offer you help and advice?
- How could you best advise staff?
It is rare that there is just one way to respond to a scenario or situation, so do not consider that the response you have chosen to this scenario will be judged as right or wrong. Share your scenario with a work colleague and ask them to tell you if they think you have responded appropriately. Ask them to challenge your response if necessary. You do not need to submit this task for assessment unless asked to do so by your assessor.
