Can anyone please help me with this question:

b) What process would you follow if you found that you have children with additional needs in your care (i.e. skills, age mix, dynamics, and size of the group of children), and as a result, the level of risk involved in activities was high?

I have written the answer:

b) Process you would follow if you found that you have children with additional needs in your care

1. By Developing a plan for inclusion:
• Considering the child’s abilities, goals, interests, expectations and health status in planning
• Developing a plan
• Identifying parents’ goals and expectations
• Seeking information about parents’ experience and practices
• Adapting a service to meet the child’s needs
• Communicating why a child cannot be included immediately
• Deciding when to review the plan
• Seeking additional resources


2. Implementing strategies to meet additional needs:
• Supporting a child’s entry in the service
• Adjusting the level of support over time
• Adopting inclusive attitudes and practices
• Supporting others to implement strategies
• Developing specific program initiatives
• Investigating and trialling strategies
• Implementing a specialist’s strategies
• Responding to the daily needs of children with additional needs
3. Consulting with others about ongoing issues:
• Sharing progress information
• Identifying and discussing issues of concern
• Establishing and maintaining information exchange
• Seeking and gaining parental permission
• Ensuring communication occurs within a culturally and linguistically responsive framework


Is it correct or not??
