Setting Up Your Lessons

Before scheduling your week, make sure your lessons and teaching settings are correctly set up.

  1. Check Your Lessons

    • Go to "Activity Schedules" on your homepage to see all the lessons assigned to you.
    • You can edit whether lessons are fixed or rotating, set which days they rotate on, or adjust the timing for fixed lessons.
  2. Update Your Teaching Settings

    • Under "Settings", you can update:
      • Your availability (when you're scheduled to be in).
      • Your teaching hours.
      • The rooms where you teach.

Scheduling Your Week

Once everything is set up, head to the Calendar to schedule your lessons.

  1. Draft Your Week

    • Click "Schedule My Week" (top right) to generate a draft using our Magic Scheduling tool, which looks to calculate the best lesson times for that week.
  2. Review & Adjust

    • Review your draft and manually drag and drop lessons to adjust times if needed.
    • If Scheduling Mode is on (tickbox at the top right), you'll see important flags, such as:
      • When students last missed a lesson.
      • Any lesson clashes with restrictions (times when a student isn’t available).
    • Click on any lesson to view more details about a student's timetable.
  3. Publish Your Schedule

    • Once happy with your week, click "Publish My Week" (found in the dropdown next to "Schedule My Week").
    • This will notify everyone involved of their lesson times.
