Online Safety
TVPS recommends that parents ensure their youngest children are safe online, here's just a few recommended resources:
New starters
We are so pleased that you are coming to join us at Tandridge Village Pre-School. We look forward to welcoming you and your family and showing you round our wonderful setting.
To help your child settle with us as smoothly as possible we have put together an information leaflet and a welcome pack which has some important information about TVPS. Please click on the links below;
Tapestry
At TVPS we use Tapestry – an online learning journal software which connects written and media based observations with assessment and next steps planning. Parents can securely log on to view immediate updates online of their child’s learning and progress. Tapestry enables staff to track and analyse the progress of individual children and whole groups. It facilitates effective planning on both an individual and group basis to ensure children’s learning is tailored to their individual requirements. It also greatly reduces the time staff could spend on written observations in traditional paper journals, allowing more time to spend with your child.
Meetings can be arranged at any time to discuss your child’s progress and we also invite parents in to talk to their child’s key person once these assessments have been completed. These assessments are tracked and additional support put into place as needed, or the focus of staff / provision changed to support any ideas that are identified. At the age of two we complete a two year old development assessment with the family and record this in the child’s learning journal online.
