The assessment task of workplace scenarios, is part of each cluster in the Nationally Recognised Qualification CHC40213 Certificate IV in Education Support (Release 3). Further information about this qualification can be found on training.gov.au
Clusters are generally completed in the order above for all theory assessment tools. Workplace tasks are generally completed towards the end of the course while on work placement. This normally means that candidates are not deemed competent in any unit until the end of the program.
This cluster assesses the following units of competency. The requirements of these units can be found at training.gov.au.
Cluster 1:
Cluster 2:
Cluster 3:
Cluster 4:
Cluster 5:
Cluster 7:
This clustering was developed by Fast Track Training Australia RTO 52215 for us by FTTA candidates only.
Clustering is mapped to the units listed above and complies with relevant requirements of the Standards for RTOs 2015 and the Australian Qualifications Framework. Only approved assessors can undertake assessment of this cluster. Workplace supervisors are not assessors and do not make a judgement of competence. Workplace supervisors collect evidence to aid the assessor in making a determination of competence. Reasonable adjustments may be made in the conduct of this assessment provided all aspects of the unit are assessed to the same standard.
The following resources are required in order to complete this assessment task. Most of these resources are provided by FTTA however some aspects are provided by the workplace or the student.
This section is completed by the assessor and the candidate during a workplace visit. Supervisors and the candidate may practice these scenarios however it is not required.
First, it is imperative that you review everything that you have learnt so far and ensure that there are no gaps in your knowledge. Your assessor will organise a time to conduct AT5 with you during your placement. This means you will be doing these scenarios in an actual workplace with real equipment, resources and under the same normal conditions of a busy, noisy and often chaotic workplace. Obviously for safety and privacy reasons some scenarios cannot be 100% real (such as emergency procedures). It is important to prepare your responses based on your workplace, be prepared for additional or follow up questions and to practice on at least 3 occasions with another person. If there is anything missing or your assessor is not satisfied with your answers, you will be given time to prepare an additional response. You may use notes provided you are not reading directly from them.
You are working with 3 children in the room next door to their main class and the bell rings 4 times. This means that there is a fire, and everyone has to evacuate to the evacuation point.

Note: 10 steps are not required. You may have more or less. Each answer will differ.

Choose any student in your class who you consider to be the most challenging from a behaviour management perspective. You are invited to participate in a case conference for this student to try to come up with strategies to improve his/her learning and behaviour. What three things do you recommend at the case conference?
The class you work in is very busy as it has at least 5 students with special needs as well as 20 students who have no known disability or disorder. There are three assistants (Joe has 12 years’ experience, Peta is new and Travis has 3 years’ experience).

Mr Paul has replaced Ms Reed however he is straight from university and the class behave very differently when he is on class.
Your job is to record the behaviour of 2 students in particular who have become particularly challenging. You will then report to Ms Reed so she can formulate a plan to address the increasing behavioural issues. Explain how you would go about recording student behaviour.

Your job is to call Peter, a retired police officer of Aboriginal descent. Assume you are on the phone to Peter and explain the reason for the call, the importance of the program and the benefits.
Peter assists in the program for about 3 months. You think it is a success however Peter thinks he is wasting his time and the students aren’t learning anything useful.

What are the types of things you could raise with Peter including changes you could suggest to the program to promote self-determination and future involvement of the community.

A student has just been moved from one class into your class due to behavioural issues. A colleague tells you at lunch time that it is possible that the reason for her behaviour is some form of abuse. You don’t believe it is neglect or any sexual or physical abuse. You have never seen as injury and the child has plenty of food, money and new clothes. However, you do know that the child is often left alone for long periods of time. Both parents are full time professionals. What signs do you look for that the child is experiencing emotional or psychological abuse? Be specific with your examples.
You and a colleague have noticed that one particular student is often injured with scratches, bruises and even some burns now and then. The child is very tired most of the time from early mornings working on the family farm. You think the injuries are caused by working on the farm outside of school hours and not from actual physical abuse. Your colleague however believes the child is experiencing physical abuse. The child is 9 years of age and while the parents are very loving, they have told the school that they expect their children to work hard. At what point could this situation be considered physical abuse and/or exploitation and what would you do from here?
