Nursery Parents - Start using Evidence Me


Happy New Year! We hope you have all had a lovely break, we are looking forward to welcoming the children back on Monday and starting Spring Term.

During the last week of the term you should have received an email from 'Evidence Me' (please check your trash if you haven't received this). This is our upgraded assessment system and will enable the Nursery to share observations/teaching moments with parents and parents to share special moments with the school in a simple way. Please follow the information below to start using the app. We have already had positive feedback from some parents and have received some lovely videos! This is a slightly different platform to the previous 2simple parent share so even if you have used this you will need to reconfirm your email for Evidence Me.

This works either via the website you will follow in your email link: https://evidence.me/login or you can download the app Evidence Me to your phone. Unfortunately this is only for IoS however the company are due to update this to include android in early 2020. Please explore and try to share some photos with us. This could be a family celebration, a proud moment or simply a practice picture to see how it works! You will also receive photos or videos from school via this website during the next half term.
