Assessment conditions

Skills must be demonstrated in a regulated children’s education and care service in Australia:

  • the following aspects of the performance evidence must be directly observed by the assessor on at least one occasion:

    • support a child to wash their hands
    • support one or more children during mealtimes
    • support a child with toileting
    • support a child with dressing/undressing
  • remaining performance evidence may be collected through authenticated third-party reports

  • observation and third-party reports must be supplemented by other forms of evidence

  • interactions with children must be supervised by an approved early childhood educator.

Where there is documented evidence that the service does not permit assistance with toileting or dressing/undressing by individuals who are not staff members, these skills may be demonstrated through simulated activities and scenarios without involvement of a real child. However, all aspects of the process must be clearly demonstrated for assessment.

Skills related to responding to situations where the health and safety of children may be compromised may be demonstrated through simulated activities and scenarios.

Simulated assessment environments must simulate the real-life working environment where the skills and knowledge within this unit would be utilised, with all the relevant equipment and resources of that working environment.

Assessment must ensure access to:

  • eating areas equipped with tables, chairs, utensils

  • drinking water

  • handwashing facilities

  • personal protective equipment

  • indoor and outdoor play areas

  • sleeping and rest areas equipped with beds and linen

  • sun protection materials

  • toilet facilities

  • toys and other play equipment

  • information technology for record keeping and documentation

  • recommendations for physical activity in the National Physical Activity and Sedentary Behaviour Guidelines for Australians and Australian 24-Hour Movement Guidelines for the Early Years (Birth to 5 years)

  • recommendations for children’s healthy eating as detailed in the following sources or their successors:

    • Australian Dietary Guidelines
    • Australian Guide to Healthy Eating
  • National Quality Framework:

    • Education and Care Services National Regulations
    • National Quality Standard
    • the relevant approved learning framework
  • service standards, policies and procedures for children’s health and safety

  • children in a regulated education and care service in Australia.
