What is Tapestry
Tapestry is an easy-to-use, secure online learning journal helping staff and families celebrate their children's learning and development. Staff use the platform to record photos of their key child which can only be accessed by a key parent or carer.
It is also used to share information through the ‘All About Me’ form and the comment section.
