Frequently when cover is required due to part of a year group being out on a trip, we may combine classes. We couldn’t find an obvious way of combining classes and notifying teachers that this has happened. We found that we could get the same memb...

We would benefit from a quick add option in the cover module. I would have the opportunity to create an "absence" add a name and the time required. It would be great for invigilation and random duties we need to cover. It would generate a cover sl...

We switch timetables during our academic year (as many schools do e.g. during exam periods). When we do that, it wipes out any historical data from the cover module, rendering the statistics meaningless. Is there a way we could retain the stats of...

We often have events which need the Timetable to be suspended for part of a day, e.g. One year group for the afternoon. We can then use 'spare' teachers to cover lessons.

The ability to have absence calling as a standalone offering to Reach where a customer may not necerssarily require the functionality of the Core areas of Reach; but just the absence calling feature

The ability to customise the font size of the cover slip. We have some users whose eyesight is not the best, while zooming in on the email can be used it is not ideal.

It is sometimes necessary to move lessons from one place to another. This does not seem to be possible as to move a lesson from a room, the room needs to be "closed" which then means it cannot be used to house another lesson. This seems to me to b...

Morning I often find that staff within departments will cover a colleague because it is an exam class, but they then need cover for their own lesson. This has come up a few times but I am unable to do the cover on iSAMS as that person is not showi...

It would be useful to be able to determine the colour of cover sessions as shown in staff timetables. Currently, the colour is very similar to meetings and so isn't very clear.

Staff currently only know if cover is cancelled when it falls off their timeline - a formal notification confirming that cover is no longer required would be extremely helpful. Ditto when a room closure takes place and staff and students are notif...
