Evidence for Learning (EFL)

Evidence for Learning is our chosen app to enable you to see what your child has been learning at school.

The app allows us to gather photo and video evidence, linked to your child's individual EHCP outcomes and Curriculum Goals. Observations are annotated and tagged to reflect our school assessment framework. All evidence gathered is automatically organised by the app and readily available when needed. 

Evidence for Learning will also help parents and carers be more involved in their child's learning journey. Not only can photos, videos and notes be easily and securely shared by the school, but you can capture and submit your own photos, videos and notes to reflect your child's development and experiences at home.

You can find more information about the Evidence for Learning on https://www.evidenceforlearning.net/send/
