Following the success of the ‘Cherry Garden Framework’ (Branches 1-10), we have now implemented the ‘Cherry Garden Bridging Framework’. This is Branches 11 and 12 for Mathematics and English. This separate framework can be turned on from the Assessments section of the Control Panel. It has been designed for children with learning differences and focuses on criteria that would be expected for a typically developing child in year 1. It comes with the Baseline and Statement screens that those of you who have used the original Cherry Garden Framework will be familiar with, as well as a ‘Best Fit’ screen which is a variation on the ‘Target Setting’ screen. Assessme…

A new iOS app update is now out (version 4.4.0). This is for those of you using the Tapestry app on Apple devices e.g. iphones and ipads. There aren’t any new features this time, it is purely for feedback improvements.

We are very excited to announce the first part of Tapestry’s management system – Booking. Once you’ve configured this new section with your setting’s opening hours, closures, session times, and rooms, you’ll be able to start recording which days and times your children are booked in for. You can set up regular schedules for each child as well as add extra bookings and record planned absences as needed. You’ll find screens to help you keep an eye on occupancy and for downloading daily registers, as well as providing you with information you’ll need for invoicing. We are fully committed to developing our management system further and have already started work…

Managers will now receive a notification when there are children's profiles on their Tapestry account that have been 'inactive' for 6 months. If you receive that notification you should consider whether you need to still be storing those children's personal data and whether it is in line with the data protection law of your country and your own policies. If you don't need to keep the profiles any more, you can mark them for deletion.

The latest update to the Android/Fire app update is now out (version 4.1.2 ). This is for those of you using the Tapestry app on Android devices and Amazon Fire devices. You can now use the Android and Fire Tapestry apps to add assessments to your observations using any of your Bespoke Frameworks. This update also contains quite a few bug fixes meaning your experience with the app should be smoother and generally better. We are also ending support for Android 4.4 (and below). If you are using Android 4.4 or below you will still be able to use any previous app versions, but will not be able to update to 4.1.2 or any future upgrades. Some of you will be…

This new feature is one we’ve been looking forward to for a while. You can now add your own bespoke frameworks to Tapestry and assess against them within your observations. Any you add will only be visible to the staff and (if you enable it for them) the relatives on your account. You’ll need to create each framework in a spreadsheet. You can find instructions on what that should look like and the format it needs to be saved in when you go to the feature on Tapestry or within our tutorials. You can then upload it to Tapestry using our Bespoke Framework Importer. From there you’ll tell us which part or parts of the framework you want to be able to select and whic…

You can now allow relatives on Tapestry to see who has ‘liked’ observations and comments, not just how many times they’ve been ‘liked’. To enable this, a manager will need to go to the Control Panel then within the ‘User Permissions’ section, choose the ‘Relatives’ tab, then ‘Pages’ and set ‘View which users have liked a page’ to ‘permitted’. This won't allow relatives to see the names of other, unconnected relatives, or of children other than the ones they are related to (for example, on group observations). In those cases they will just see that a 'hidden user' has liked the post or comment.

A new iOS app update is now out (version 4.3.2). This is for those of you using the Tapestry app on Apple devices e.g. ipads. This is quite a small update. It is purely for a fix to a bug a few of you have been experiencing where observation previews have been showing up two or three times and the information displayed in them is sometimes getting muddled up with the previews above and below. This does not include any new features.

The 'Creative Development' Branch Map for the Cherry Garden framework has now been renamed to 'Expressive Arts and Design'. Everything else about it has stayed the same, it's just the title that has changed.

We are removing P Scales entirely from Tapestry because the Government has replaced P Scales with The Engagement Model and The Pre-Key Stage Standards. In October 2021 we permanently removed them for new users and for the accounts that already had them turned off. Today we removed them for the people who weren’t using them anymore but who either still had them turned on or who had historic P Scale data on their accounts. There will still be a few of you who can see them – if that’s you, it’s because we believe you’re still using them. We will have been in contact with you about a date for their removal for you, but if you haven’t seen that email, please get in t…
