Electronic Registers

[Ciara_Rush]

Hi, 

At my setting, we still use the old paper registers and the attendance is manually entered onto a spread sheet. It is very time consuming and percentages of attendance have to be worked out manually as well. 

I would like to suggest the addition of attendance registers on Tapestry. 

We would need to be able to pull children’s attendance off in percentages, look at different cohorts and an option to log reasons for absence.

We would also need to access real time attendance in case of fire evacuation.

There are many online registers out there as well as quite a few other online journals offering it. As we are a smaller stand alone nursery and not part of school, we don't have access to systems such as SIMS.

Rather than having to buy into another system, we would prefer to have everything in the one place. 

 

Many thanks 

Ciara

Hi Ciara, 

Thank you for your message. Registers are on our development plan and currently being looked into. I have added your ideas to the developer notes for this and we will hopefully be able to share the feature soon.

Hi Ciara,

We're pleased to let you know that Tapestry’s Online Register is now available! 

You can access our tutorials for this below:

• Online Register
• Online Register export

We’re not quite ready to release it on the apps yet, but we know many of you will be keen to explore, so we are releasing it as a ‘beta’ to start with. This means that whilst the released functionality has been fully tested and you are welcome to start using it, you may see some tweaks over the next few months - most notably, it becoming available on the apps.

In the meantime, you can use the browser version of Tapestry on your mobile devices to access the Online Register. This video shows you how.

Best wishes, 

Alexandra
