Built on the statutory framework

Best‑fit judgements, with the evidence behind them.

Prime & specific areas, age bands, the three characteristics, and the safeguarding requirements — baked into the way hoopooh listens, tags and reports.

Voice → observation

One voice note. The right EYFS area, every time.

Teachers speak the way they always have. hoopooh polishes the language, links the moment to the right area & age band, and quietly notes the Characteristic of Effective Learning behind it.

  • Auto-tagged across the three prime & four specific areas.
  • EYFS age bands— Birth–11m, 8–20m, 16–26m, 22–36m, 30–50m, 40–60+m.
  • Characteristics of Effective Learning flagged alongside — not as a checkbox.

  • One profile per child, generated from tagged evidence.
  • Best‑fit judgement cited with the observations behind it.
