Here are the key points regarding my role and responsibilities in lifelong learning according to the IFL code of practice: - Identify and meet the learning needs of all students in a fair, sensitive and timely manner - Maintain appropriate boundaries and refer students to other professionals when needed - Establish ground rules and a learning environment where all students feel safe, respected and supported - Continually evaluate and improve my teaching practice through professional development and self-reflection

8.  See Kim’s Helpful Hints
for writing the essay

10.  ‘Putting learners at the heart of what we
do’ . (Success for All, 2002).
 The health and safety of learners has always
been an important consideration
 The Green Paper: Every Child Matters, and
the Children Act 2004

11. ‘means those aged between 0-19, those who
are over 19 and receiving services as care
leavers under section 23C –24D of the Children
Act 1989 and those over 19 but under 25 years
with learning difficulties within the meaning of
section 13 Learning and Skills Act 000 and who
are receiving services under that Act’.
(Children Act 2004)

12.  Every Child Matters (ECM) is a UK government initiative that
was launched in 2003. It is one of the most important policy
initiative and development programmes in relation to children
and children's services of the last decade
 It has been the title of three government papers, leading to the
Children Act 2004. Every Child Matters covers children and
young adults up to the age of 19, or 24 for those with
disabilites.
 Its main aims are for every child and young adult, whatever
their background or circumstances, to have the support they
need to meet the 5 identified outcomes

13.  The very use of the term ’child’ in the title
makes it seem as if ECM is not relevant to
the post 16 sector.
 The centre for excellence in teacher training
has produced material called ‘Every Learner
Matters’. This is to help and ensure all post
16 providers analyse how their provision
meets the requirements of the ECM outcomes

14.  Be healthy
 Stay safe
 Enjoying and achieving
 Making a positive contribution
 Achieving economic well being
 These are now incorporated into the Common
Inspection Framework

15.  In
your groups draw a sheep (all will be
revealed later) in the middle write down the
ECM outcome you have been given
 In
your groups go clockwise around each of
the 5 outcomes and note down how you
would meet these needs. You will have 5
mins at each to discuss and make bullet
points
I shall time you and move you on!

16.  This outcome deals with all aspects of health
and health promotion, such as encouraging
learners to adopt healthy lifestyles and make
healthy choices e.g. choosing not to take illegal
drugs or smoke, actions that aim to promote
good physical, mental, emotional and sexual
health.

17.  This outcome is primarily about keeping
learners safe from harm, both physically and
emotionally. Child protection issues play a large
part in this outcome and providers should
consider risks at the training centre and at any
work place that a learner may access. For
younger learners (14-16) issues around the
length of working day and travel arrangements
might also need to be considered.

18.  This outcome relates to learner enjoyment and
success. Much of the evidence will come from
learner views about their training programme.
It can also be assessed through attendance
patterns and the rate of progress that learners
make. How learners are supported, both with
learning and personal development will impact
on this outcome.

19.  This outcome is linked to improving self-
confidence in learners to enable them to
participate in their local communities. It is
about learners developing positive behaviour
and choosing not to bully or discriminate. It is
also linked to learners knowing and
understanding their rights and responsibilities.

20.  This outcome relates to how well learners are
prepared for the working environment and
independent living. The development of skills
for work and life is key, including learners’
ability to manage their own finances. The
availability of careers advice and guidance and
opportunities for work experience and
progression routes into employment also play a
significant part in ensuring that this outcome is
met.
