Hello East Dulwich Forum!

I am a student studying for a Masters in Social Work (at the University of East London and the Tavistock and Portman NHS Foundation Trust) and I am hoping to find a lovely family in london that will help me to complete a child observation for my human growth and development module.


I need to observe a child under 5 years old who is someone I don't know or have contact with so that my observations can be unbiased while also allowing me to develop my role as an observer, rather than friend or colleague. The child I observe also needs to be not known to have special needs or a connection with social services in order to provide me with a glimpse into ordinary early years child development.


The observation would only take place for one hour a week for 12 weeks starting in February, preferably at the same time and place. The setting can be wherever you and/or your child are more comfortable - this could be at home or as part of a group in nursery or day care. I would take notes after this session and use these notes (without passing on any confidential information) in seminars and as part of a reflective essay at the end the module.


I hold a current enhanced CRB/DBS as part of my course and have signed up to the update service so it would be easy to check my credentials.


Please message me for more details!


All the best,

Kirsty

I also had to do a 12 week child development study and went to a council nursery in Camberwell. With the large number of nurseries around it should not be a problem . Alternately the nursery/reception class of a primary school.

I found that with my tutor from Goldsmith's college letter explaining the reason behind the observations, and with meeting the manager of the nursery first, it was reasonably straight forward. However I did write to several nurseries first enclosing a copy of the tutor's letter. I was told at the beginning of the course in Sept that in the spring term we would need to have a place ready to start our observation studies.

      The Johnson papers

      he's not on the general radar - not with the Labour tax scandal and the new Tories wanting to buddy up with Starmer (on their terms). if anything, he's a irrelevant distraction from some real alarms

      Let me rephrase this He does not seem to be personally bothered by the impact he has.  Rather than immune from somebody taking action against him.  Although the bar had to be raised and raised before anyone did anything, and there are still those in his party who think it was wrong to get rid of him. He delivered a poor Brexit so didn't get that right.  He didn't believe in it, in the first place, he was just getting one up on his chum Dave.

      1. No he's not, he made a pigs ear of things, his leadership was poor and his behaviour was unbecoming of the highest office in the land.  2. No they don't,  he was a prime buffoon 3. Not a messiah, in no way. He caused great damage to both the Party and Country after three years of differing by May. The only thing he completed was B  r  e  x  i  t.  Are we paying the price. Don't ask me, I was in an induced coma at the time, fighting for my own life.

      My comment is trying to not take any political side but rather be objective on what I see, hear and read. If the Government made a positive difference to people's lives, people would be pro this Govt, but sadly the majority don't see an improvement since they have been in Office, but rather the opposite so people's opinions of the Government are poor.  I think if you did a straw poll of users on here, the result for those in favour of the Government is likely to be unfavourable, but I may be totally wrong, quite possible. No one I speak or am in contact with has a single good word to say about the current Administration. In fact the calls for a General Election just become stronger and stronger.
