To assist us with the recording and planning of your child’s educational development we use Famly. This market leading educational reporting and assessment system is used in nurseries and schools around the U.K. and worldwide.
The Parent Portal function of this unique system allows children, parents and teachers to work closely together which is highly beneficial for your child as it celebrates your child’s achievements supporting their progress. Each child will have their own online Interactive Learning Journey, which assists us with the recording and planning of your child’s educational and personal development in line with the Early Years Foundation Stage Educational Programmes. These are working diaries and are ongoing until the end of Reception. Parents will be provided access to the Famly Portal, this allows us to work closely together by enabling parents to see what their children are achieving in school. We are also very keen to engage every parent in their child’s learning and progress throughout the year and welcome observations, videos and photographs that you make of your child thus enhancing our holistic and collaborative approach to learning.
As this is an online profile, we will need your permission to initiate your child’s account.
Please be rest assured that the information about your child and their learning is secure and is only accessed by the members of staff and yourselves as parents. Any personal details about your child are confidential and will not be disclosed. Further photographic and video consents are obtained upon registration for the sharing of your child’s images.
Upon receipt of the required consent form, you will receive an email with login details to both the Famly app and the desktop version of the portal. Your login is unique to your child’s account so please refrain from sharing your child’s account with other users.
If you require any more information regarding Famly and its features, you can visit Famly Parents Welcome Video and Famly Help Centre for Parents. If you experience difficulties at any time accessing your child’s diary please contact Mrs Vickery on earlyyearsadmin@lingfieldcollege.co.uk.
Kind regards,
Mrs Vickery
