Case Study

Baljit’s mother is not very happy that her four-year-old daughter is playing all day when she is with you. You have asked her to pop back and see you one evening for a one-to-one meeting so that you can talk about it.
  1. How will you explain the importance of play for Baljit to her mother?
  2. How could you demonstrate the benefits of play for Baljit’s development?
  3. How will you gain Baljit’s mother’s support for your approach?
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.
