After enabling the KS1 and/or KS2 framework/s on your account and setting up your tiers, you then need to set Maintained Achievement Points (MAPs) for your children, if you haven't set up your tiers yet, please read this tutorial. A child's MAP is just the tier you expect a child to be assessed in throughout the year for each subject. You can use this at any time during the year to check the child is being assessed where you expect them to be or whether they are working above or below this. For children starting in year 1, this tier will be based on their EYFSP tier, and as you go up through the years, the MAP for the child will be based on their end of year ti…

This tutorial will explain how the scores in the Cherry Garden Baseline and Statement Screens are calculated. These are the scores that will then carry through to the Strand Scores and Progress screens so it's important that they're correct. The way they are calculated is a little different to how the other scores are worked out so even if you're familiar with other assessment types on Tapestry, it's worth reading this through. The main difference is that the scores from the baseline and then earlier assessment periods carry through to later assessment periods. This means that even if you don't get chance to assess a child in every subject area within the framewor…

The Cherry Garden statement screen is one way of keeping track of where your children are during each period. This has a group view version for seeing the attainment of the children within a group side by side and an individual view screen where you can see the existing scores of a specific child, add new observations and override current scores. In this tutorial I will focus on the Individual View but you can find the tutorial for Group View screen here. Before you look at either of these tutorials though, you might want to start with the tutorial on how the Cherry Garden snapshot scores are calculated. You can find that here. To access the statement screens…

To make a baseline you need to be logged into the browser version of Tapestry, then click on 'Tracking' at the top of the page (1), select 'Cherry Garden' (2), then click on 'Individual View' in the Baseline section (3). That will take you to a page that allows you to select the child you want to baseline (1), and the area you want to baseline (2). Once you have chosen those things the rest of the page will load. That will start with a status box allowing you to lock the baseline and to select a start and end date. These things will apply to all of the areas, so if you're baselining a child all in one go, then don't lock …

We've worked with Cherry Garden School, an outstanding specialist school for pupils from 2-11 years old in the London Borough of Southwark, to bring their assessment framework for children with learning differences to life on Tapestry! Using their years of specialist teaching experience and by building on parts of the popular Routes for Learning framework, Cherry Garden have created a unique framework for students working at a level expected for typically developing children aged 0-5 years. In short, it is a bank of statements relating to 9 areas of learning (this is broken into 24 aspects). Each aspect has up to 10 branches indicating a different 'level' with branch…

For your record keeping it is important that you keep hold of copies of children's accident form made on Tapestry. Obviously whilst a child is at your setting, these can be kept on Tapestry, but when they leave you will need to export these. Otherwise they will be deleted when you delete the child from your account. You can find out more information about retention periods from within the resources section on the forum, to download the resources from here you will need to be logged to your forum account. If you need any help with this, please get in touch with us by emailing customer.service@eyfs.info. You might also want to export accident forms so you can analyse w…
