Part 1: Reflective practice journal – Identifying and responding to child protection concerns To complete this part of the assessment, you are required to participate in several practical skill demonstrations and complete the associated reflective journals. You are required to show evidence of your ability to respond to a child protection concern in the workplace. This does not have to be a real situation. The student is required to discuss their response with a Workplace Supervisor and then document their reflections. Responses should be a minimum of 30 words but no longer than 100 words for each journal entry. You are required to demonstrate the following skills: 1. Identifying and responding to a child protection concern • Respond to disclosure, information or signs and symptoms in accordance with state legislative responsibilities and the service policies and procedures 2. Implemented work practices which support the protection of children and young people, including: • Read and interpreted the procedures for reporting children at risk in line with organisational expectations and legislative requirements • Complying with regulations, legislation and duty of care responsibilities • Providing appropriate responses in the protection of children and young people • Maintaining confidentiality Your TAFE NSW Assessor will complete the Assessor Observation checklist and gain feedback from your Workplace Supervisor to assess the required skills. You will find a copy of the checklist at the end of this assessment. Skills must be demonstrated in the workplace. In addition, simulations and scenarios must be used where the full range of contexts and situations cannot be provided in the workplace or may occur only rarely. These are situations relating to emergency or unplanned procedures where assessment in these circumstances would be unsafe or is impractical. Simulated assessment environments must simulate the real-life working environment where these skills and knowledge would be performed, with all the relevant equipment and resources of that working environment.

Jarrad has generally settled in well, although you are aware that Jarrad’s parents now appear very stressed and distracted. You have noticed that for the past 3 drop offs, Jarrad has come to care without nappies, bottles and / or formula. Today, at drop off, you make a note of checking Jarrad’s bag before the child’s mother leaves and notice that again, there is no nappies and only one feed of formula packed for the day. When you ask the mother if Jarrad has nappies and more formula, they comment that we “run out again” and doesn’t get paid until Wednesday. When you check the sign in book as the mother’s leaving you note Jarrad hasn’t had breakfast today yet either. Jarrad is clearly hungry, and you head to the kitchen to make up some cereal. 2.1 Do you believe there is a concern that should be raised under child protection guidelines? What indicators support your concern? Write 30 – 100 words
