Adding statements from more than one age band on the app

[AnonyMouse_70489]

Can someone please tell me if you can select statements for an observation on the app from more than one age band. As soon as I click another age band the selected statement from the other age band disappears?

No, you need to choose one age band - use your professional judgement and go for best fit. Alternatively, you can save the observation with one age band for some statements and then copy the observation and save it again with other statements ticked in a different age band.

I would also find it really useful to be able to add statements from more than one age band, rather than copying the observation. Is there any possibility of this being available in future?

Thanks

I'm not sure how this would work with the analysis because Tapestry looks at the 17 areas and uses an algorithm to make a single point of reference. If there is more than one age band allocated for one aspect in one observation then the analysis of that aspect will be very muddled. Maybe you need to make a series of observations in one aspect and not refine the assessment - and then manually assess it at the end of the period when you can look a the 'bigger picture'. I have attached a tutorial that explains how Tapestry calculates analysis from refinements.

I think it would be really useful to be able to link to different age bands especially in maths

Ticking more than one ageband

Hi,

 

Just about to raise this too and I saw this thread! We are new users to Tapestry and while we're getting on great with it we too find that there are those instances when a child is hovering between two age bands for an aspect and staff are wanting to tick statements in both age bands.....which they were doing and then we discovered that it wasn't keeping all the statements ticked - doh!
