Timetable module
School Timetable Management Software
Build class schedules with subjects and teachers assigned, and let students and parents see the timetable and what is coming next.
One published schedule · visible to students and parents
Each period carries who is teaching what.
No printed copy to lose or photograph.
What is next, not just the week in a grid.
What the timetable module covers
From building the schedule to the person who needs to read it.
Building the schedule
Create and manage class schedules for each class and section.
Assigning teaching
Subjects and teachers are assigned to periods, so the schedule says who as well as what.
Publishing
Students and parents view the timetable directly, without a printed copy being distributed.
Upcoming class
Students can see the class coming next rather than reading a whole week's grid.
Why the printed timetable stops being true
A schedule changes through the year. A printed one changes only when somebody reprints it.
- One published schedule replaces several photographed copies of a paper grid.
- Changes reach students and parents without a reprint.
- Each period records the teacher as well as the subject.
- Parents can see what their child is timetabled for on any given day.
- The schedule sits alongside homework, attendance and results rather than apart from them.
The timetable is the most-consulted document in a school
Almost everyone looks at the timetable, almost every day: students working out where to be, teachers confirming a cover period, parents checking whether their child needs a games kit. It is also the document that changes most often — a staff absence, a room swap, an exam week — and the one where being out of date does the most immediate damage.
A printed grid handles the first day of term well and degrades from there. Copies get photographed, shared, and outlive the version they were copied from, so different people end up working from different weeks. Nobody is being careless; paper simply has no way of telling you it is stale.
What to check in a timetable module
- Can schedules be managed per class and section rather than as one school-wide grid?
- Does each period record the teacher as well as the subject?
- Can students and parents view it directly, so a change reaches them without a reprint?
- Is there an upcoming class view, rather than only the full week?
- Does it sit with the same records as homework, attendance and results?
Building it for the first time
The first build is the slow part, and it is worth doing with the person who currently owns the paper version rather than around them — they know the constraints that are not written down anywhere. After that, changes are edits rather than rebuilds, which is the point: the effort is front-loaded once instead of repeated every time something moves.
The published timetable is one of the things families see in the learning portal, alongside homework and attendance.
Common questions
Can parents see the timetable?
Yes. Students and parents can view the timetable through the portal.
Are teachers assigned to periods?
Yes. Subjects and teachers are assigned when the schedule is built, so each period records who is teaching it.
Can students see what class is next?
Yes. Upcoming class information is available rather than only the full weekly grid.
Can we manage separate schedules per class and section?
Yes. Schedules are created and managed per class.
