Safeguarding Children

In respect of Cylch Meithrin Rhyd y Llan Safeguarding Children Policy we must inform you that it is the Cylch Meithrin staff’s duty to pass on any information regarding child protection issues to the Social Services, NSPCC or Police.

Quotation from the Policy:

If a Leader/Staff suspects that a child is being abused as a result of physical marks on the child, behavioural signs or that the child himself/herself makes such claims, the Leader of the cylch will take action immediately by contacting the Officer on Duty at the local office of the Social Services Department or/and the Police or the NSPCC.

Foundation Phase

The aim of the foundation phase is to enrich children’s experiences in order to develop their imagination and their creativity and to enjoy the process of learning. Children have opportunities to explore the world around them, and to understand how things work by taking part in real hands on experiences.

Planning in the Moment

Planning in the moment is about taking advantage of the time to move children forward in their development. This is based on what interests the child. This way of planning relies on skilled practitioners. This means that the practitioner uses skills to observe what the child is doing and be able to move the child on, assesses the teachable moment from the child's perspective and is skilled enough to know when to intervene and when to stand back and observe. We will need to:

• ensure that the child feels valued, important, interesting, capable, and able to learn as well as acquire knowledge, skills, attitude and understanding of them in order to make progress in one or several of the developmental pathways in the Curriculum for Wales.

Observations

Each child is a focus child for at least 1 week per term and receives attention and the opportunity to develop skills regularly that practitioners record in their booklet "Taith Dysgu" following the principles of Anna Ephgrave. This records what the focus children have done and how we can develop the learning further. We will notify you the week before to let you know that your child is a focus child. Planning in the moment is about seizing the moment of engagement and running with it to ensure the children move forward.

Cylch Meithrin Rhyd y Llan

Practitioners must observe, play, interact and develop the focus children's learning to ensure the child develops to its full potential.

The observations must be based on quality interaction between children or children and practitioners.

The Learning Journey will include any teaching that has taken place or progress that your child has made.

At the end of the year the Learning Journey will be sent home to the parent/carers.

Taith i Iaith

As an Early years setting, we are taking part in the Taith i Iaith scheme which is has been created by the Anglesey Department of Education. This is an exciting scheme and the first of its kind in Wales and it is a privilege for us as a setting to be piloting it.

The purpose of Taith i Iaith is -

The Welsh Government's aim is to have one million Welsh speakers by 2050. This is a long-term aim and the Taith i Iaith Scheme is one of Anglesey’s contributions.

In order to reach the goal, as a setting we have introduced a number of interesting aspects, e.g. borrowing story sacks to go home, establishing a library and singing songs using Makaton to ensure that the child is central in the learning and enjoys the experience.

Additional Educational Needs

Our aim in the Cylch is to give every child the opportunity to take full advantage of Welsh Nursey education. If you have any concerns on the development of your child, please talk to a member of staff so we can create a plan for their educational needs.

The staff work closely with external agencies to implement individual play plans to ensure that the child receives additional help to develop.

Cylch Meithrin Rhyd y Llan

Learning Journey Book

We record the development of each child during their time at the cylch and parents are invited to have a formal discussion about the development of their child at the end of each term during their time at the Cylch Meithrin.

Every child has a book which contains comments by the leader and staff, photographs and creative work which is added throughout their time at the cylch, as you look through the book you will see the clear development your child has made.

Parents / Guardians

The Cylch supports the principle of accepting parents/guardians and children’s views on the service provided to ensure we maintain the highest possible standards. We evaluate the service twice per academic year and parents are asked to complete an Evaluation of the Service Questionnaire (GG). We will hold an open day once a year to share information regarding activities provided for your child and also to discuss their development and achievements within the Cylch.

Compliments and Complaints Procedure

We always welcome your comments on our service in order that we can continually make improvements. As parents/guardians you will be made aware of the procedure for making compliments and complaints before your child starts at the Cylch.

If you wish to complain regarding any aspect of our work then you should initially tell the Leader verbally, if a more formal approach is needed then do so in writing to the Responsible Individual – Gwen Williams – gwen@penrhynfarm.com. However if the problem has not been dealt with satisfactorily contact CIW.

The Cylch ensures that at least half the staff have a current First Aid Certificate and attend regular training.

All electrical appliances and fire protection equipment are tested annually.

Emergency

If an emergency occurs the children’s safety is our priority, we will then contact each parent to come and collect the children.

In exceptional circumstances or in an emergency it may be necessary to close the Cylch Meithrin at short notice. If it is necessary to close at short notice the staff will contact the parents/guardians by telephone by using the telephone numbers given by the parents/guardians on the registration form (P1) giving as much notice as possible. If it becomes necessary to close due to an emergency during the session, staff will contact the parents/guardians using the emergency contact numbers. Staff will remain with the children until they are collected.

Parents/guardians will be contacted to confirm the date the setting will reopen.

Medical Emergency

If a child requires emergency medical treatment and the Cylch is unable to contact the parents or any other emergency contact, the Cylch will make the necessary arrangements to ensure the child’s wellbeing.

By signing the childcare contract, the Cylch is given permission to carry out emergency arrangements.

The Cylch Meithrin provides a high-quality service through the medium of Welsh, which reflects the nature of the society, as most of the children who attend the Cylch come from Welsh-speaking households. Each child will continue to pursue Welsh-medium education after they leave the Cylch.

Mae’r Cylch Meithrin wedi ei gofrestru gyda Arolygaeth Gofal Cymru (AGC) fel Gofal Dydd Sesiynol ar gyfer 19 o blant 2-3 oed a 19 o blant 3-4 oed. Mae’r Cylch wedi cofrestru fel Darparwr Addysg 3 oed / The Cylch Meithrin has been registered with the Care Inspectorate for Wales (CIW) as Sessional Day Care for 19 2-3 year-old children and 19 3-4 year-old children.

ATODIAD 23

Cafodd y Cylch eu barnu’n ‘dda’ yn dilyn ei arolwg Estyn diweddaraf. Roedd hyn yn ôl yr Arolygydd oherwydd y “darn o adroddiad Estyn.”/

The Cylch was deemed ‘Good’ following their latest inspection by Estyn. This was, according to the Inspector, because of the ‘quote from Estyn report’.

Mae’r Cylch felly yn bwysig iawn i ddatblygiad plant ac yn allweddol i gynnig y dechrau gorau iddynt boed hynny yn ieithyddol, cymdeithasol ac o ran eu lles /

Therefore, the Cylch is very important to children’s development and key to offering them the best start, be that linguistically, socially or regarding their welfare.

Bydd cyfle i blant ddysgu a chymdeithasu o dan ofal staff proffesiynol, cymwys a brwdfrydig yn ystod sesiynau’r Cylch Meithrin. Gan fod chwarae yn bwysig iawn i ddatblygiad plentyn, mae’r profiadau a’r gweithgareddau sy’n cael eu cynnig yn y Cylch Meithrin wedi’u selio ar feysydd dysgu’r Cyfnod Sylfaen ac ar addysgu drwy chwarae. Mae pwyslais arbennig yn cael ei roi yn y Cylch ar sgiliau iaith, llythrennedd a chyfathrebu, ynghyd â datblygiad personol a chymdeithasol. Mae’r holl wasanaeth yn cael eu darparu drwy gyfrwng y Gymraeg /

The Cylch Meithrin will provide sessional care and education of high quality to children aged between two and a half years old and school age. Children will be provided with an opportunity to learn and socialise under the supervision of professional, qualified and eager staff during sessions of the Cylch Meithrin. As play is so crucial to the development of children, all experiences and activities offered at the Cylch Meithrin are based on the learning areas of the Foundation Phase and on teaching through play. A special emphasis is placed on language, literacy and communication skills, as well as personal and social development. The entire service is provided through the medium of Welsh.

Bydd y Cylch yn darparu gwasanaeth yn ddyddiol o ddydd Llun i ddydd Gwener rhwng 9 – 11.00 ac yn y prynhawn rhwng 11.00 a 3.00 /

The Cylch will provide a daily service from Monday to Friday between 9 – 11.00 and in the afternoon between 11.00 – 3.00.

Mae’r Cylch yn cael ei redeg gan dîm o 2 aelod o staff llawn amser .Gan fod rheoliadau AGC yn mynnu fod cymarebau staffio plant i oedolion yn 1 staff i bob 4 plentyn 2 - 3 oed ac 1 staff i bob 8 plentyn 3 oed, mae’n rhaid cael y lefel cywir o staff ymhob sesiwn. Gan fod nifer y plant ymhob sesiwn yn uchel a gan fod nifer o blant sy’n derbyn cefnogaeth 1:1 mae’n ofynnol cael y lefel uchel o staff sy’n achosi i'r costau staffio fod yn uchel iawn. Prif gost y Cylch yw'r cyflogau a gan fod y staff wedi’u cymhwyso i lefel uchel mae’n rhaid cynnig cyflog teg iddynt.

Mae’r Cynllun Busnes yn dangos lefel staffio ar ei uchaf, bydd lefelau staff yn codi ac yn disgyn yn ôl gofynion y cymarebau a nifer y plant fydd angen cefnogaeth 1:1 /

The Cylch is run by a team of 2 full time members. As the CIW regulations require that staff / child ratios be 1 staff to every 4 children aged 2 - 3 and 1 staff to every 8 children aged 3, the correct level of staff must be present in each session. As the number of children in each session is high, and as several children are

5

ATODIAD 23

provided with 1:1 support, it is necessary to provide a high level of staff, causing staff costs to be very high. The Cylch’s main expenditure is wages and as the staff are qualified to a high level, they must be offered a fair wage. The Business Plan shows the staffing level at its highest level, and staffing levels will raise and fall according to ratio requirements and how many children will need 1:1 support.

Bydd y Cylch yn derbyn pob plentyn sydd o fewn yr oedran priodol i fynychu’r cylch, waeth beth fo’i anghenion, lliw, hil, iaith, crefydd, dosbarth cymdeithasol neu sefyllfa deuluol.

The Cylch will accept every child who falls within the appropriate age range regardless of needs, colour, race, language, religion, social class or family situation. The Cylch will welcome children with additional learning needs and will endeavour to ensure appropriate additional support which meets the individual needs of the children from Flying Start or the Referral Scheme .

Mae pwyslais arbennig yn cael ei roi yn y Cylch ar sgiliau iaith, llythrennedd a chyfathrebu, ynghyd â datblygiad personol a chymdeithasol. Mae’r holl wasanaeth yn cael ei ddarparu trwy gyfrwng y Gymraeg /

The Cylch Meithrin provides sessional care and education of high quality to children aged between two years old and school age. Children will be provided with an opportunity to learn and socialise under the supervision of professional, qualified and enthusiastic staff during the Cylch Meithrin session. As play is so crucial to the development of children, all experiences and activities offered at the Cylch Meithrin are based on the learning areas of the Foundation Phase and on teaching through play. A special emphasis is placed on language, literacy and communication skills, as well as personal and social development. The entire service is provided through the medium of Welsh.

Bydd y Cylch yn darparu gwasanaeth o ddydd Llun i ddydd Gwener, rhwng 9 a 11.00 y bore a 11.00 a 3.00 y prynhawn /

The Cylch will provide a daily service from Monday to Friday, between 9 – 11.00 in the morning and between 11.00 – 3.00 in the afternoon.

Gall y Cylch gynnig gofal i 19 o blant 2 oed a 19 o blant 3 oed yn ddyddiol am sesiynau o 2 awr yn y bore a 4 awr yn y prynhawn, sef 10 awr yr wythnos yn y bore a 20 awr yr wythnos yn y prynhawn, am 39 wythnos y flwyddyn. Bydd y Cylch yn gweithio mewn partneriaeth â Awdurdod Addysg leol er mwyn cynnig ystod llawn o wasanaethau /

The Cylch can offer care to 19, 2 1/2-3 year old children and 19, 3-4 year old children daily for sessions lasting 2 hours in the morning and 4 hours in afternoon, totalling 10 hours a week in the morning and 20 hours a week in the afternoon, for 39 weeks of the year. The Cylch will work in partnership with the local Education Authority to offer a full range of services.

Bydd bob plentyn yn derbyn 10 awr yr wythnos o addysg wedi’i sybsideiddio gan yr Adran Addysg yn dilyn eu pen-blwydd yn 3 oed. Dyma fydd prif ffynonellau cyllid y Cylch. Bydd gweddill y cyllid yn dod trwy godi arian, rhoddion a ffioedd mae plant nad ydynt yn gymwys i unrhyw un o’r uchod yn eu talu /

Each child will receive 10 hours a week of education subsidised by the Education Department, after their 3rd birthday. This will be the Cylch’s main source of income. The remainder of the funding will come from fundraising, donations, and fees paid by children who are ineligible for any of the above.

Bydd y Cylch yn cael ei redeg gan staff profiadol a chymwys. Gan fod y Cylch yn gweithio mewn partneriaeth â Awdurdod Addysg leol, mae’n ofynnol i bob aelod o staff fod â chymhwyster lefel 3. Bydd gan bob aelod o staff dystysgrif GDG a hyfforddiant diogelu plant cyfredol. Bydd y Person â Gofal yn sicrhau fod o leiaf 1 aelod o staff ymhob sesiwn yn meddu Tystysgrif Cymorth Cyntaf Pediatrig, gan anelu at hyfforddi pob aelod o staff. Byddwn yn anelu at gynnig hyfforddiant Diogelwch Bwyd i bob aelod o staff hefyd. Mae rhaglen gynhwysfawr o hyfforddiant yn cael ei gynnig gan adran Addysg y Sir a bydd pob aelod o staff yn cael eu hannog a’u cefnogi i fynychu cymaint o hyfforddiant ag sy’n addas ar gyfer eu dyletswyddau. Er bod mwyafrif yr hyfforddiant yn cael ei sybsideiddo yn achlysurol bydd elfen o gost i’r Cylch /

The Cylch will be run by experienced and qualified staff. As the Cylch works in partnership with the local Education Authority, it is necessary that each member of staff has a level 3 qualification. Each member of staff will have a current DBS and Safeguarding certificate . The Person in Charge will ensure that at least 1 member of staff in each session has a Paediatric First Aid Certificate and Food Safety and will aim to train every member of staff. We will aim to give each member of staff Health & Safety, Manual Handling. The local council Education Department offer a comprehensive range of training and each member of staff will be encouraged and supported to attend as many training sessions as are appropriate for their duties. Although most of the training is subsidised, there will be an occasional cost to the Cylch.

Gyda mwy o rieni’n mynd yn ôl i weithio mae galw eang am ddarparu gofal plant o safon, yn ogystal â hyn gallwn sicrhau fod y plant yn derbyn dilyniant ieithyddol. Rydym yn gallu bod yn gystadleuol iawn o ran pris gyda darpariaethau eraill lleol /
