Tapestry is used in Reception and the first half term of Year 1.
It is an easy-to-use, secure online learning journal, which helps staff and families celebrate their children’s learning and development. It builds a record of a child’s experiences, development and learning journey through their early years and primary education.
Using photos, videos and diary entries, teachers, together with the child’s parents, ‘weave’ the story of the child and how they are growing and developing. These entries build to create lots of memories and a permanent record of each child’s unique journey. Parents are able to view online their child’s progress and how much fun they’re having, whilst also uploading their own comments and media.
The communication between staff and parents through Tapestry helps build a shared understanding of how every child can reach their full potential, from birth to the end of primary school.
Below is a useful guide for parents on how to use Tapestry in order to get the most from it.
