Editing timetable slots, lesson times, rooms and staff

Go to School > Programmes > Courses and click into the course. You can see the scheduled lessons in the Classes & Lessons section.

To edit a scheduled lesson, click the lesson. Click the orange Edit button.

If you want to change the time of the lesson timetable slot, do not change the times of the current class, as these changes will also affect previous classes and existing attendance marks.

Instead, we advise ending the current timetabled session on the date the last class will run at this time, then adding a new timetabled class to start.

In the slide over, add an effective end date. This is the last day classes will run at this date and time. Then click Save Changes.

You will be asked to confirm your choice.

Then click +Add to add an alternative class for the next set of classes with the required dates/times. In the slide over, add the new times and dates of the sessions, then click Save Changes.

Your new timetable slot will then be scheduled. 

You can use this option if you'll only be running this class for a certain period during the year, or will be importing a TimeTabler file that covers the rest of the year and need to end your current scheduled timetable.

We recommend to not use this option to change the effective start date if you've already begun taking attendance, as this can impact your school’s statutory attendance for past registers.

Select new dates and tick the box to confirm your changes, then click Save Changes.

You won’t be able to delete timetable slots if you’ve begun to take attendance. We advise ending the timetable slot first then importing your new timetable or and adding a new slot from the course (shown in section at the top of this article).
