New Articles and Guides to support your CPD

We have a new article and a new ‘Beginner’s Guide’ this month. Both have been written by Speech and Language Therapist, education consultant and scholar activist Warda Farah.

In her article, Warda explains Pathology of Agency, and reflects on the impact it has on children in the early years, as well as what we can do to combat it. Read the full article here.

The Beginner’s Guide to Intersectionality has been created by Warda to support childminders, nurseries and schools in having necessary conversations about intersectionality. Download it for free here.

 

The Tapestry Infographic Library

Did you know we have over 20 free infographics, covering a whole range of Tapestry and education related content, free to download?

Want to give your relatives more support with using Tapestry? Or information on why play is so important? Or maybe it’s the start of a new year and you’re looking for a “Tapestry To-Do List?” There’s infographics for all this and more. Download them here.

 

Feature Focus: Tapestry CPD

If you are looking for some high-quality CPD then try Tapestry CPD. Currently, all the courses on Tapestry CPD are free to everyone. If you access through your Tapestry Manager or Staff Log in, you’ll be able to save progress and get certificates for some courses.

We have courses all about using Tapestry more effectively – for example, Starting a New Academic Year.

And we have courses on education topics such as An Introduction to Safeguarding and Communication in a Child’s Fifth Year.

Access all these and more from here, or by clicking the CPD button on the top task bar within your Tapestry account.
