Identify factors that could affect the individuals self - concept, and explain how these might affect them (P3) and (M3) Self-concept means our knowledge of who we are. Our self-concept includes: * Self-esteem - how highly we value our skills and abilities * Self-image- how we see ourselves given the reactions of other people Self-concept is important for the following reasons: * Our view of ourselves can motivate us to do things, or stop us from doing things, e.g. doing well at school or at sport. * Our view of ourselves can create a feeling of social confidence or cause us to feel anxious with other people. * Our view of ourselves can mean that we experience happiness or unhappiness from life experiences. * Our view of ourselves can help us lead a successful and enjoyable life, or it can lead us into trouble and difficulties in coping with life.

CONTENTS . INTRODUCTION 2. EVALUATION OF SKILLS AND KNOWLEDGE 2.1. Technical - course-related 2.2. Social and Inter-personal 2.3. Strategic and Operational 3. STRENGTHS AND WEAKNESSES 4. SUMMARY OF RESULTS 5. REFERENCES . INTRODUCTION This report is a personal development plan that shows an evaluation of current skills and knowledge that includes my strengths and weaknesses. Development is a lifelong of nurturing, shaping and improving an individual's skills, knowledge and interests to ensure my maximum effectiveness and adaptability, and to minimize the obsolescence of my skills and my chances of redundancy. It does not necessarily imply upward movement; rather, it is about enabling individuals to improve and use my full potential at each career stage. (Definition of personal development planning from class material) The personal development plan for me is a chance to know my self better, I can realize what I want to achieve or where I want to go in the plan, in the short- or long-term, and also identifying the need for skills, knowledge or competence. It also helps me to define the appropriate development to meet those perceived needs. In this report, I am going to focusing on what my strengths are and

In my discussion I am going to describe about statutory provision for a children under 5 years in a nursery class of a state school. School may work closely with a Link Inspector, Educational Psychologist and Educational Social Worker make regular visits to support pupils and staff. They focus on child development and preparation for a successful transition to primary school education. They have different activities like to motivate and stimulate the children's learning abilities by using play activities; interacting with and supporting children, providing them with a secure environment to learn; organizing learning materials and resources, and making imaginative use of resources; assisting with the development of children's personal/social and language abilities; encouraging children's mathematical and creative development through stories, songs, games, drawing and imaginative play,etc. Another example for children aged between 5 & 7 years. They are in key stage 1 (Year 1 and 2). They require knowledge, skills and understanding for each subject. The statutory subjects that all pupils must study are art and design, design and technology, English, geography, history, information axnd communication technology, mathematics, music, physical education and science.

Caring For Older People. Explain why there are difficulties defining the term older perso
Caring For Older People P1 - Describe the meaning of the term 'older people' M1 - Explain why there are difficulties defining the term 'older person'. So what is an older person? Someone in their 60s? 70s? 80s? or even 90s? From researching on the internet I have come to find that it's not really that easy to find a definition of what an 'older person' is. What I do know is that there are certain physical marks on an individual that makes you think that they are an 'old person', for example, toothlessness, balding or grey hair, hunched back, lameness, deafness. Old people have limited regenerative abilities and are more prone to disease, syndromes, and sickness than other adults. Most developed world countries have accepted the chronological age of 65 years as a definition of 'elderly' or older person. While this definition is somewhat arbitrary, it is many times associated with the age at which one can begin to receive pension benefits. Although there are commonly used definitions of old age, there is no general agreement on the age at which a person becomes old. From my own experience there are many types of older people. My own Grandmother has just turned ninety-four, she is living in a care home and can't really do anything for herself. She can't feed herself, or wash herself and she doesn't really recognise anybody including her family. But on the other hand
Explain barriers to effective communication within a health and social care environment
Unit 1 communication Task 2 P2 Explain barriers to effective communication within a health and social care environment Barriers to effective communication; The communication cycle – If any part of the communication cycle is not played out properly like the message not being sent properly or if the message is not received correctly then this will then become a barrier to effective communication and in a place like a care home this will not help when it comes to dealing with difficult, complex and sensitive issues. This can be overcome by making sure the communication cycle is used correctly stage by stage. Environment – Any issues with the environment around us when we communicate can be a barrier to effective communication. Like if it is too noisy in a classroom while teaching, the student will not be able to hear the message or will be easily distracted. It could even be that that the chairs are uncomfortable and it can affect one’s concentration. Or it could be that a patient with sight impairments cannot see in the reception area because it is dimly lit. This can be overcome by making sure

E4- Include evidence of the effects of these factors on children's health. There are many factors which can affect children's health and well-being throughout their lives. The practitioner and parents should be a good role model to the children/child, this is because children will copy the behaviour. Diets are very important during the age of 0-3 years, as this can harm the unborn child during their development. This means making sure mother does not eat these foods that she shouldn't such as
Barriers to Communication.
Nasima Khanom Barriers to Communication (Direct quotes from health and social care intermediate book-Josephine de Souza) When we communicate, our ability to get our message across affectively to others can be hampered by a number of barriers. As a care worker it is important to recognise barriers to your own our own communication and learn how to overcome them. In health and social care and early years settings these barriers include:- .) Language As a multiethnic society, the UK, the UK has many citizens whose first language is not English and who may find English difficult to understand. Many native speakers of English also find the complicated medical words on hospital signs and the jargon of health care workers hard to understand. In all of these circumstances, language can be obstacle to effective communication between care workers and their patients and clients. 2.) Culture In a multiethnic society like the UK there are a lot cultural differences between different groups in the population. These differences can affect the way people communicate and interact, which can sometimes cause communication problems for example, the amount of eye contact, the physical closeness or proximity and the amount of touching that people do when they communicate varies accordingly to culture. It is important to be aware of this when working with people in care settings in order to
