Case Study
You are working with a new colleague who has just moved to the UK from Utah in the USA. There are lots of pieces of UK legislation that he has heard of but, to your amazement, he has never heard of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child.
- How would you explain the UNCRC to your colleague and has he never heard of it?
- How would you explain the difference between policy, procedure, and legislation in the UK?
It is rare that there is just one way to respond to a scenario or situation, so do not consider that the responses you have to the above scenario will be judged as right or wrong. Share your scenario with a work colleague or friend and ask them to tell you whether 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.
