Create absence for staff who do not have assigned lessons

The Cover Manager module does not allow you to create absences for staff who have no allocated lessons. This is very illogical given that schools often have numerous staff without timetables who are available to cover lessons - if they are absent,...

Invigilation, adhoc duties etc - Make it a quick add

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...

Suspend Timetable for part days

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.

Room cover functionality

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...

Notifications to staff of cancelled cover arrangements and to staff and students of cancelled room closures

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...

Add a time selector for timetable suspensions to cover manager

We have situations where whole Year levels will be gone for a certain time for example all Grade level 6 will be out for a local trip from 11am until 3pm. Right now the timetable suspension will only allow to mark a whole day, it would be really h...

Flexibility with cover swaps

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...

Allow "Cover Note" to be able to be added to the email template for emailing out cover

It would be really helpful if additional information about the cover (that we currently include in Cover Note) could be one of the fields we can add to our email template for emailing out cover to staff. Currently this field is only viewable in th...

Ability to split the cover period into two and assign different teachers

We have hourly timetable periods but sometimes we need to split the period into two half hourly cover periods and assign different staff. This facility ensures that the relevant people are aware that they need to cover a class. Some of our staff a...

Room cover - Allow two lessons to be added to one free room

We have many classes where we have to create two seperate sets but for all intents and purposes are one class taught at the same time by the same teacher. The best example of this are High Level and Standard Level IB Diploma classes. When re-roomi...
