Interview a parent or guardian about their child’s home literacy using the ORIM model as a guide to your conversation. Use the ORIM template to record (in point form) the parent’s responses, and then attach this as an Appendix to the end of the assignment. Synthesize and analyze this information and then use it to design an early childhood environment that nurtures this child’s literacy development. The environment should include both the physical activities / experiences you will set up specifically with the child in mind, but also the type/s of interactions that you would like staff members to engage in when with the child. You will need to explain and justify your choices by reference to the related literature and the parent interview data. The environment you design could be inside or outside.

written report which compares and contrasts the indicators/trends of
the city centre office market, in
two of the following locations:
Manchester
Leeds
Birmingham
Bristol
You should also include a reasoned opinion of likely market trends within your chosen sector over the next 12 months
Your report should contain the following elements:
A review of relevant literature
You should research the city centre office market in your chosen cities by referring to theory in published literature and current issues in professional reports. You may wish to discuss the history and development of your particular markets, but don’t spend too long on this – you should focus on recent trends. Ensure that you focus on fact rather than opinion, and avoid relying on one source (particularly lecture notes). The web links provided in the module reading list are fundamental sources of market data.
A review of secondary data
You should obtain relevant data from appropriate sources which can be used to show important trends. Large surveying firms, such as those listed in the reading list, produce research reports that contain up to date statistics on office markets. Use tables or graphs rather than quoting figures in the text, and examine trends over years rather than reporting year by year. Data from personal contacts cannot be verified and so should not be included.
Critical analysis
The literature and data should be analysed critically and your argument should have a clear logical structure. Simply describing the data that you have found is not analysis – you need to interpret the data, comparing and contrasting the two cities and drawing conclusions from this. Links between theory/practice should also be identified.
Conclusion
Summarise the report and provide reasoned predictions for the next 12 months based on your findings.
This is an individual piece of work so all writing must be original, free from plagiarism or collusion.
Please
ensure that all material from secondary sources is correctly referenced

‘Despite all the arguments for deregulation, the case for adequate protection of individuals against arbitrary dismissals is as strong as ever. The arguments are based on the moral right of individuals to be fairly treated in cases of dismissals. Fair treatment of individual employees by management helps to remove a ground for resentment by the workforce collectively and contributes to a more efficient management.’ Steve Anderman ‘Termination of Employment: Whose Property Rights?’ in C. Barnard, S. Deakin, and G.S Morris (eds), The Future of Labour Law: Liber Amicorum Bob Hepple QC, 2004 Hart Publishing p.128
