Student timetables in bulk

In School >Timetable > Student Timetables > Printable Timetables you can download student timetables.

Select a year and school week that you would like to bulk download the timetables for. If your school works on 2-week cycles, this will automatically select more than one school week and this will output a timetable for each week, per student.
