44 Assessment Children have a key role to play in assessment and they should be encouraged to contribute to all stages as and when appropriate. Clearly, judgements about children’s involvement in the assessment process have to be based on what is developmentally appropriate and also on detailed knowledge of individual children. Assessing children in relation to their learning and development can take many different forms, for example through observations or conversations. Staff need to be very careful to ensure, however, that conclusions drawn from assessments are indeed valid and reliable. Working and communicating meaningfully and respectfully with parents, other key family members and relevant services is necessary if staff are to make valuable and accurate assessments of children as an integral part of the overall provision. PRE-BIRTH TO THREE: POSITIVE OUTCOMES FOR SCOTLAND’S CHILDREN AND FAMILIES OBSERVATION, ASSESSMENT AND PLANNING
OBSERVATION, ASSESSMENT AND PLANNING Staff and/or parents may consider that additional intervention is required to support a child’s wellbeing, health and development. Getting it right provides staff with guidance to help ensure that children benefit from support which is appropriate, proportionate and timely. 17 Staff may find the National Practice Model that joins up the Well-being Indicators and the Getting it right ‘My World Triangle’ helpful in the process of identifying concerns, gathering relevant information about children in more complex situations and analysing that information: 17 See section on Partnership Working ‘When working with children or young people the My World Triangle can be used at every stage to think about the whole world of the child or young person. It is particularly helpful to use the My World Triangle to gather more information from other sources, possibly some of it specialist, to identify the strengths and pressures in the child or young person’s world. This may include, for example, information about health or learning, offending behaviour or information about issues affecting parenting.’ (Scottish Government, 2008a, section 4) WWW.LTSCOTLAND.ORG.UK/EARLYYEARS 45
