They are the only ones I have answered at the moment.

Description and Message:
Having a bit of trouble understanding what exactly I am supposed to be doing with this assessment (I blame pregnancy brain for dumbing me down haha). Could someone please tell me if I am doing these correctly, answering them the way they are intended to be answered? Or am I completely off track with these (and if so help me understand what it is I am meant to be doing, like give me an example answer)?
I have no idea what the rest of the answers are supposed to be either, ugh.

hi stuck on this question number 5 commission for children and uoung people and child guardian act 2000

I have answered so far This can be implement in our childcare by staff following strict and necessary guidelines in order to keep each child safe and secured in the cwntre environment. When working in childcare it is our duty of care to take on the responisibilty of each idividual child under our care. But i have been told to provide an examplke of how you would implement the principles in practice. If i was to write, Report any form of harm eg, bulling accidentail injury and so on would this be right?

Thank you so much for your help CHEERS
