There are many ways in which adults can effectively support and extend the speech, language
and communication development of children and young people. As a project worker it is our duty
to help all those young people in their development process. There are many stages of the age
we can offer help to the children.
0 to 5 years:
At this stage of the age most of the children they need encouragement from us to learn things.
At this stage they have no understanding of communication. How to express their needs. Our
duty is to teach them everything they will need in their next stage of life. Children will develop
their early vocalization; learn to say word even sentences from the age of 6 months to two years.
All we have to teach them the correct words and at the same time we have to be very careful that
they don’t learn anything negative. From the age of two to five children develop their early
effective communication. From the age of three they will be attending nursery where they will be
learning about early communication skills. They will recognize other children and will be able to
recognize family members. Children will start making friends. They will develop the social
engagement.

friends. Same with the children with special needs this stage is very curtail. They also will start

take the necessary steps towards his/her development. We have to encourage them a lot
towards the activity. We have to motivate them to learn new things.

This is a very important stage for children and young people. And we as a project workers have
big responsibilities towards the children’s development. This is the age when they move towards
adulthood. They need a lots of motivation and encouragement. At this stage we have to build
their confidence and keep them motivated towards the changing phase of their life. We also have
to work for their physical development and other development needs.

Q2. 3.1 explain the importance of the environment in supporting

speech, language and communication development (AC-3.1)

We should be very flexible when developing communication friendly spaces, these spaces
should be made available to the children inside and outside. We should try and make it with a
child’s perspective in mind. We should reduce noise and distractions to a minimum otherwise
the children cannot concentrate. The area should have sufficient sunlight for us to maximize
the use of light and enable children or young people to see our face and how we use facial
expressions this is particularly important if we have a child with an hearing impairment,. A
communicating area should not be over stimulating or cluttered, IN our setting we have a fully
equipped sensory room with different sets of sensory toys. This sensory room helps our
children to develop their communication skills. Our whole setting is a children’s friendly
environment where we have different kinds of toys and activities designed for children with
special needs. Our staffs are highly trained and know how to engage young people in activities.
We always do group activities which enable children to interact with each other and develop
communication skills. It also helps them to develop their social skills. Our buses are equipped
with children user friendly equipment. We have designated play areas, family room, and
sensory room. We have a purpose built kitchen where our child enjoys their cooking activities.
All this facilities helps our children to develop speech and communication. We at discovery
home always give importance to the environment and plan all our activities appropriate to our
children and the age group. Children love coming to our setting. And from parents feedback I
can confirm many of our children are developing their communication and social interaction
skills.

Q3. Explain the processes and procedures to follow in order to raise

any concerns and access additional, specialist support (AC-4.3)

As a project worker it is my duty to raise concern about the child and also to shout for
additional support. At Discovery home we go through a lot of assessment process to
identify any additional needs. We work closely with family, carere’s schools and other
partners in order to identify any additional need of our children and we support our
children to get those support. We always ask family if they need any extra help from us.
If we have any concern regarding the child we always inform our manager and the senior
staff. We are very strict about safeguarding policy and it’s a zero tolerance policy. We
always fix a strategy to deal with the situation. We try to identify the source of the concern.
We inform the families .we always try to come up with a solution. If the matter is too
serious than we contact social services, local authorities and other relevant body’s. We
always contact with social services for any additional or specialist support for our young
people. And most of the time they come with a solution
