Daniel is a child care worker and has been employed at the service for approximately eight months. Today a student from the local high school is commencing a two-week workplace experience. Daniel’s supervisor has asked him to explain to the student the procedures for cleaning the tables and tidying the equipment at the end of the morning play session.

The student shadows Daniel throughout the following weeks. One day when they were outside with the children the student asked Daniel the following questions. How should Daniel respond?


a. “It must be hard supervising so many children. It’s such a big playground and there are so many things going on. How do the carers manage to keep the children safe?”
Daniel’s response:


b. “There’s lots of equipment to set up and pack away. Do you just put out whatever you like wherever you like?”
Daniel’s response:


c. “Daniel how come the carer’s spend so much time getting the children to do things for themselves, wouldn’t it be quicker and easier just to do it for them?”
Daniel’s response:


d. “I’m amazed by all of these written policies and procedures. I know the children need to be safe but it seems you have a policy for every single thing you do. Isn’t that just way over the top?”
