I think forums such as the Foundation Stage Forum are important for early years practitioners because they give people the opportunity to share their experiences and learn from each other. As someone who works in a nursery, I think it is useful to hear different ideas about working with young children, supporting their development and dealing with different situations. I would be interested in contributing to discussions about play, children’s development, learning and supporting individual children’s needs. I also think that practitioners should reflect on their own practice and be open to learning from other people. Reading different opinions does not mean that you have to agree with everything that is said, but it can help you think about your own ideas and consider whether there are different ways of doing things.- 1

New feature: Quick Switch & Tapestry Updates
You can now quickly switch between Tapestry settings if you are linked to more than one account. If you log in to multiple accounts using the same email address, you’ll be able to see the other settings you are linked to by clicking the switch icon 🔁 at the top of the sidebar, next to the name of the setting you’re currently logged into. If you log in using a different password, you’ll see a padlock symbol next to the setting name. This means you’ll need to enter your password before completing the switch. Note: This feature is not available for PIN-only staff or child login. The following updates are also now available on Tapestry. New Birth to 5 reference material within the EYFS flagset Montessori activity descriptors are now visible The ‘Manage Groups’ page has had a redesign for improved user experience Care Diary form PDF exports now include the ability to see whether the relative signed this off on their own device or setting device The Accident tracking screen has been reintroduced allowing the ability to export a single PDF detailing all accidents during a time period. To navigate to this screen - Planning & Monitoring > Care Diary > Accident Tracking. Online Child Register – there will now be a collected/dropped off field. This needs to be turned on first through Management System > Configuration > Registers. Online Staff Register – staff and pin only users will not be able to edit their own in/out time This update also includes minor bug fixes and user interface improvements for a smoother experience.
