AnonyMouse_54239 Posted September 13, 2016 Posted September 13, 2016 Can anyone please enlighten me on Tracking using Tapestry many thanks in advance Quote
Helen Posted September 14, 2016 Posted September 14, 2016 The most popular screen to see how your children are doing are the snapshots tab, the age-band tracker on the snapshots screen, and the comparison screen (from your analysis tab, click on the EYFS heading then scroll right down to the bottom). The comparison screen allows you to select two assessment periods so you can see the progress between the two. I hope this helps :1b We're currently working on new screens to show progress, so if there's anything you'd particularly like to see , please let us know. Quote
AnonyMouse_12805 Posted September 16, 2016 Posted September 16, 2016 Helen, our LA is 'encouraging' us to use the Kent Tracker. Which is ok but really I find it so time consuming, its very slow and 'sulky' as well. Also I get the data from Tapestry, input to Kent Tracker and then really it gives me the same information back! However the one thing it does give us that I can seem to get from tapestry is a 'true' picture of progress. For example it will tell me that Johnny was at 22-36 e at his starting point, the next term he was 22-36d and the next at 30-50e for each Aspect. I can see all this at a glance. Now I maybe wrong but have never been able to get this information at a glance on Tapestry. Or am I missing something, If not I think this would be of most value to groups and the biggest improvement you could make. (although I do love Tapestry as do all my staff!) Quote
FSFRebecca Posted September 17, 2016 Posted September 17, 2016 If you are using refinements when you are assessing observations - as you say emerging, developing, secure and have also got your assessment overview screen (control panel > setting > summative assessments) set to show you 'age bands and refinements' you will get this information when you use the analysis screens. Analysis > EYFS > progress will tell you the information you are seeing in your Kent tracker - hope that helps! Quote
AnonyMouse_7120 Posted September 17, 2016 Posted September 17, 2016 (edited) hi, I may be missing something really simple here but is there a way to lose all the the periods from the age band tracker that have none of the existing children in ? I have 7 periods going back to Aut 1 - 13/14, it would also be useful to be able to reset the pie charts for eyfs and coel in analysis so they reflect observation practice in the current year.
