Scenario: At a staff meeting in a child care centre, a staff member makes the comment, “It would be much easier for us if we worked with
the children and didn’t have to think about their parents.” Several other staff members laugh at this comment and say they agree
with him. No one challenges this opinion. This comment came after a parent made a complaint that her request for her daughter
to participate in a certain type of learning activity wasn’t met. The parent felt the request was “shrugged off”.

arising again.
Scenario: A parent of a child in the 3-5-year-old children’s room asked staff not to allow her child to join in the singing of Happy
Birthday to other children as this practice conflicted with the family’s religious beliefs. The parent was shocked to see a
photo of the group displayed on the notice board which included her child singing Happy Birthday to her child’s best friend.
She complained to the centre’s director about this matter
Requirement: You are the staff member that allowed the child to sing happy birthday. Draft a response on how you would handle your
supervisor asking why this happened and how you would go about it differently in the future.
- What the potential ethical issue is and what parties are involved

arising again.

solving techniques when exposed to competing value systems

- Identifying situations where work practices could be improved to meet legal and ethical responsibilities,
particularly around;
 discrimination
 duty of care
Response An ethical issue developed because the carer did not do what the parents requested.
This became a problem for the parent the carer and child centre and possibly others.
The carer was me, we were busy at the time, we noticed the child was feeling left out and started to
Get depressed, started crying, we were short staffed, the child’s best friend whose birthday it was became upset too.
The children were becoming upset as well, so I let the child join in to sing happy birthday, being mindful that the parents request
was being ignored.
The breach was not obeying the parents requests, and the parents losing their trust in the carers or the centre again.
To help the parents develop trust again, at the centre, I will take the full responsibility for this, and will apologise to the parents as
well.

To deal with these types of situations in future we will have more staff on hand, so if any similar incident were to happen, we
would take the child to do other activities, before the party actually starts.
Follow up meetings will be implemented to inform staff of any new developments which may arise in the future,
So as a similar thing can be avoided.
We will also do our best to honour the parents requests and keep in touch to let them know in case something similar happens
again in the future.

Student Instructions – Assessment 3 - Portfolio
The assessment task
You are required to collect a range of workplace documents as part of a portfolio to demonstrate
you can organize your own work schedule, monitor your work plan and coordinate your professional
development for continuous improvement.
In consultation with colleagues and the workplace supervisor, you must undertake a self-analysis of
your current skills. From this analysis, you must identify personal learning and professional
development needs to address your skill gaps in relation to your current role and organisational
requirements. Once you have identified your skills gap, you must list your work goals to be
implemented in the work plan. The work plan will need to have clear work goals, objectives or Key
Performance Indicators (KPIs) that address work outcomes in the skill gap area, according to
organisational requirements.
The work plan should assess and prioritise workload to ensure tasks are completed within identified
timeframes. You should also allocate additional time to allow for contingencies for affecting factors.
You will need to implement and monitor your work plan over a period of time and adjust your work
performance through self-assessment to ensure you are achieving work goals, objectives and KPIs.
You will need to ensure that feedback on performance is actively sought and evaluated from
colleagues, work place supervisor and clients at progressive stages of the work plan. This feedback
should be reflected on and adjustments, if any, to the work plan documented.
The portfolio should contain:

- A document that identifies personal learning and professional development needs to
address skill gaps.
- A work plan with clear work goals, objectives or Key Performance Indicators (KPIs).
- A reflection on how you monitored your work plan and what, if any, adjustments to
performance were made.
- Evidence of feedback from colleagues and workplace supervisor.
- A final report that records professional development opportunities undertaken and
reflecting on how this activity has facilitated continuous learning and career development.
Your responses should be guided by the requirements of the National Quality Framework,
Standards, National Laws and Regulations and the Early Years Learning Framework relating to
working within legal, ethical and approved learning frameworks.
The skills within this assessment relate directly to the integrated knowledge contained within the
units of competency and are fundamental to your ability to perform workplace tasks correctly. The
assessment must be conducted in a regulated education and care service. You must demonstrate all
skills to satisfactorily complete this assessment.

Write a 500-word reflection of how you discussed practice with supervisor and others:
Listening to the teacher giving a talk about the National quality Frameworks, which are the National Law, the national regulations, National Quality
Standard and approved leaning Frameworks. I found it sometime difficult to understand the leaning framework-Belonging, Being and Becoming is part of
our studies to progress into child care. I tried hard to listen and understand but as we worked as a group to learn principles in early education.
For the beginning, it was difficult for me to understand the course. We were in a group together. And it felt better that there were people similar to me,
and willing to listen to me for ideas as well. We had some ideas of what to do and we listened to each other, at times I stayed quiet and listened because
other people had some good information that I could learn from as well.
Reflecting as a parent, I have also learned how important it is to honour the rights of the child, sometimes even though want to do the right thing
because of not knowing about child rights parent can cause more harm. I was not fully understand the unicef legislative law until now but can see that it
is very important for the safety of the child too. As I was listening to different subjects, I was also writing down important notes on sheet of paper to help
me remember what I was taught at class. This was very helpful for me when doing homework, sometimes I became confused and overwhelmed by some
questions in the book. Then I remembered my notes that I had written, and could find some answers that I needed as well.
It was good to talk to the others so I could ask some questions about something I found hard to understand, and they could explain it better to me so I
could understand more clearly. After the few weeks I can see now how to write the answers to the questions, and also how to find some answers from
the information booklet early learning framework.

During the Certificate III of Early Childhood Education and Care, you are required to complete a
minimum work placement of 120 hours. This assessment activity must be completed during a
portion of the 120 hours of work placement time. It is recommended to allocate time either at the
end or during each shift to properly document the activities relating to the key areas.
There are four key areas you are required to provide evidence of performing within the workplace.
This includes:
- Contribute to workplace improvements
- Apply the learning framework
- Reflect on own practices
- Identify and respond to legal requirements
The four key areas and their related tasks are listed within the workplace reflection diary. Each task
has space to record the details of three separate instances of when you have performed these tasks.
You are encouraged to record three separate instances for each task.
The work must be conducted in a regulated education and care service directly supervised by the
workplace supervisor. You must document your work activities and have them signed off by your
workplace supervisor to verify these entries. Once you have addressed all key areas, you are
instructed to submit the completed workplace reflection diary to the assessor for review.
