Tapestry Guide for parents
Tapestry – Your Child’s Online Learning Journey
At Quwwatulislam Girls School, we use an online learning journal called Tapestry for children in EYFS (Nursery and Reception).
Tapestry allows us to record your child’s learning and development by sharing photos, videos and observations of activities they take part in at school. This helps us keep track of their progress in line with the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS).
How does Tapestry work?
Tapestry is a secure online website where you can log in using your own username and password.
- You will only be able to see your own child’s Learning Journey.
- You will receive an email when staff add a new observation or activity.
- You can view your child’s photos, videos and learning at any time.
- Staff will show how your child is developing in different areas of learning.
How can parents get involved?
We encourage parents to add their own photos, videos and comments to Tapestry. This could include:
- Baking or cooking at home.
- Going on walks or bug hunts.
- Drawing, painting or writing.
- Counting objects or playing games.
- Any activities your child enjoys.
You can also leave comments on observations added by staff. This helps us understand what your child enjoys and what they are learning at home.
Is Tapestry safe?
Tapestry is hosted on secure servers in the UK and uses security measures to protect your child’s information, photos and videos.
Your child’s Learning Journey can only be accessed by authorised people.
