Hi everyone please help,

“Key legislation covering children’s environments”

On my NVQ assessment toolkit I have this question which I don’t understand. It is probably an easy question but my brain is gone blank any ideas please?

all I can think of is the Enabling environments as laid out in EYFS - could cross over into safeguarding....

Good luck!:eek:

I would say health and safety legislations, requirements to have RA's of all of their environment.

Requirement of EYFS to have a range of good quality equipment and resources

The Enabling environment talks about emotional environment, so any legislation you can find which requires childminders to be trained/an appropriate person (might want to check the Childcare Act)

Not sure if that helps.

The Health and Safety at work Act 1974

Toy (Safety) Regulations 1995

COSHH (Control of Substances Hazardous to Health Regulations 2002)

RIDDOR (Reporting of injuries, diseases and dangerous occurrences regulations 1995)

Health and Safety (First Aid) Regulations 1981

DDA (Disability Discrimination Act 1995)
