Case study

You are organising a family party at your setting. Your setting includes three wheelchair users, two individuals with a hearing impairment, and two vegetarians. You realise that you have families that come from all over Europe, Asia, and Africa.

• How can you ensure that this event is enjoyable for everyone?
• What can you do to make sure that you don’t accidentally discriminate against any of the individuals attending the party?

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.
