CRITERIA 1.1
When planning a activity you must take in to account the factors of children. There are 8 main factors to take into account. 1. The individual needs of the children and the age and ability of the children- when planning a activity you must think about this as children of a young age cannot do the same as a older child so more consideration has to be given. Make sure the children are under supervision at all times. When indoors planning is needed then think about the layout of the room and safety equipment is used i.e. stair gates 2. If the children are sensory impairments- For a child who has a hearing impairment you would need to provide visual aids for them or sign language so they are aware of the health and safety for example if the child was running indoors. And make sure you consider fire drills with this child as they won’t be able to hear you ring a bell. Make sure you are always within sight of the child whist also allowing them to enjoy their environment. With sight impairments make sure there is good lighting. 3. The needs of the families and carers - You need to take into account the needs of parents and carers so give them information on health and safety or if they can’t read, hold meetings. For those where English is not their first language give out information written in their home language. 4. The function and purpose of the environment- When using the environment its important the children have the space that is required for the planned activity. When using outdoor environments make sure the plants around do not pose a threat. And also there is no dog or cat mess around the hard ground is even and rubbish is removed on a daily basis. 5. The duty of care-to the children and parents and other carers- it is a legal obligation. You should always have the child’s safety and welfare as number one in your mind when planning an activity. 6. The desired outcomes for the children and young people- by
