Keeping a Record – ‘My Learning Journey’Each child’s development is unique and special, which is why we at Toad Hall create an individual record for every child in our group – the ‘My Learning Journey’ booklet – which will be yours to keep when your child leaves Toad Hall
The KeypersonYour child’s Keyperson has special responsibility for your child while they are at Toad Hall. She will reassure your child in the early days of separation; ensure that he/she settles into the pre-school routine; offer encouragement to join in with all the activities available and build a relationship with you and your child. Your child’s Keyperson will not be the only adult who will be involved with your child but will be the one who knows your child best.

‘My Learning Journey’ booklet
The Keyperson will keep a record of your child’s progress and achievements by making regular observations and assessments. These will then be recorded in the ‘My Learning Journey’ booklet along with photographs and some of your child’s drawings and art work. The Keyperson will update the booklet at the end of each term.
Please, look for the page showing ‘Parent/Carer Comments’ and ‘Child’s Comments’. This is where you and your child can make your own comments.
