Component 1 – Human Lifespan Development
Students must carefully consider relevant factors and how their impact changes over time, including which factors are most important at each of the three chosen life stages. Learners may explain how and why a particular social factor was important in one life stage but much less so in another.

Component 1 – Human Lifespan Development
Students will assess the impact that the same life event had on everyone, classifying impacts clearly in relation to PIES They must comment on how well the two individuals adapted to the life event, with supporting evidence.

Component 2 – Health & Social Care Services & Barriers to Accessing them
Students must demonstrate all seven of the care values stated in the essential content in a health or social care context, simulated or real. Learners must produce a review that shows the ability to identify for themselves both positive and negative aspects of their own performance, as well as then commenting on the feedback they received in terms of which parts they agree with or disagree with, and why.

Component 3 – Health & Wellbeing
Learners will design a health and wellbeing improvement plan that clearly describes recommendations, with specific and realistic short- and long-term targets, and sources of support that are linked to the targets. They provide a clear and convincing justification for the plan in terms of how it links to needs, wishes and circumstances of the individual. They clearly describe potential obstacles that might arise in keeping to the plan and make realistic suggestions for how these might be overcome.

Component 2 – Health & Social Care Services & Barriers to Accessing them
Students must assess the suitability of health and social care services for meeting the needs of individuals in a scenario given by the teacher. This requires learners to make an overall judgement, which could result in rankings or scores, together with clear information about how they have reached this judgement.

Working in Health & Social Care
Enquiries in Current Research
Learners will make critical, rationalised judgements about the techniques and skills evidenced within the research around the issue/enquiry and its use in the health and social care sector. Their use of secondary research techniques and skills will demonstrate their understanding of the wider issue in context. They will evaluate the purpose, actions and results of the research against the principles of validity and reliability and demonstrate a thorough understanding of how feasible ethical solutions to research can be planned and delivered in context. Learners will form conclusions linked to the implications of the research for future practice/provision in the sector. These conclusions, and any recommendations for adaptations, will be justified and articulated professionally.

Working in Health & Social Care
Enquiries in Current Research
Learners will draw on and bring together their knowledge and understanding about the role of duty of care and safeguarding procedures in promoting safe practice in a health or social care setting. Learners will apply their understanding to more complex situations where they will recognise and respond to evidence or concerns about abuse and neglect in the setting, for example where different agencies may need to respond to concerns about abuse and neglect. Learners must reach reasoned and valid judgements on the significance of a duty of care and safeguarding procedures in promoting safe practice in health and social care.

Safe Practise & Principles in Health & Social Care
Promoting Public Health
Learners will argue concisely and professionally to evaluate how far public health policy has met its aims in a specific demographic area. Learners must show in-depth understanding of strategies used to develop policy and how these, and population health status monitoring, are used to create public health policy. Learners will use their research to deepen their understanding and arrive at valid conclusions on the socio-economic impact of improving the health of the population. Learners must draw together their understanding of the four factors affecting health and must include one example from each. They must refer to local demographic data and compare this to national data to make suitable justifications and recommendations.
