Your Question?
Hi,

For part 1 of this assesment I had to summerise the main points of 2 policy documents, I picked confidentialiy and complaints procedures. For part 2 of the assesment I have to evaluate the policies, in 250 words I have to explain how each policy compliees with the following, state licensing, accreditation principles and early childhood australia. Im just not sure where to start or where to find any of this information, any help on this would be great.

Thanks


What is your answer so far or What have you done so far as an attempt to solve this question?
I have tried googling many different things to try to find information on how they comply with state licensing but am just not able to find the information that I am after.

The best thing to do is gather these policies from your centre's policies and procedure's manual. You should be able to find on each of these documents itself which part of the regulation or licensing each of these policies refer too.

In regards to the accreditation principles I'll attach a copy of the NQS (National Quality Standard) below so you can refer to it. I think that both the confidentiality and complaints procedure both fall under Quality Area 6 - Collaborative partnerships with families and communities and Quality Area 7 - Leadership and service management. So, you can check under each of the points to see where the policies you chose fits in with these.

With Early Childhood Australia the only thing I can think of is referring to the Code of Ethics. I'll also attach a copy of this for you.
