Getting up to date with a child from another setting

[SarahGHTPS]

What would be the best way to input information from a paper tracker to create an accurate baseline for s child that has previously attended a different (non-tapestry) setting? The most obvious answer seems to be to go through the paper tracker and create an observation for each age band to include all the documented assessments. However, this seems like a lot of work and has some redundancy in that the lower age band assessments are no longer relevant. What would your advice be for getting up to date on their development without creating lots of observations?

 

Thanks in advance,

hi, like you say you can create an observation and select all the statements the other setting are saying have been achieved, if you then want to carry on with statements, but I wouldn't be worrying about bands they are clearly past, or you could just go into 'snapshots' and create a summative assessment by choosing a band and refinement (if you are going to use them) for each aspect, then export to pdf and print if you want a paper copy, scribble a note on the bottom to say it has been generated using information received from previous setting :-)

I'd create a baseline assessment in your snapshot screen. :1b
