Evidence for Learning
Evidence for Learning is our school’s chosen platform to capture and record evidence of your child’s learning. You will hear school staff refer to this simply as EfL. If you have any questions about Evidence for Learning please do not hesitate to contact your class teacher.
Parents and carers can access the following information:
- Evidence of your child’s learning
- Photos
- Videos
- Comments/Feedback
- Annual reports
EfL puts parents at the heart of their child’s learning
Partnership between home and school is meaningful through the school’s active use of the ‘Evidence for Learning’ system. Evidence for Learning gives a secure portal for class teams to provide observations of learning with videos and images to each family through the EfL learning journal. It allows families to provide observations of learning at home to the class team, so that our planning and assessment connect school and home. Every family has a personal login and access training and support.
The EfL Family App is now available in both iOS and Android app stores (please see links below).
