All about me
One of the changes in the new September 2021 EYFS curriculum emphasised education being more about early years practitioner knowledge of the child.
Child knowledge
So we thought it would be handy for parents to provide you this information through the Parent Admin app so you can track and manage the quality of information ready for your next Ofsted inspection.
Easy to update
It is also easy for parents to update and log any changes they wish to make which is handy.
Child likes & dislikes
Parents can provide information on favourite toys, likes and dislikes, etc. We also gave parents the option to upload photos of their children which also helps when printing off your children’s “all about me” forms.
Auto-send ecards to everyone
Birthday eCards
Why not do the nice gesture and automatically send a birthday card email to your children, parents & staff. That way, it is ready and waiting in their mailbox at 8am on the morning of their birthday.
