Seating plans for all lessons, similar to external exams manager
Allow teachers to create seating plans for lessons with pictures and possibly SEN/medical notes. Useful for cover teachers, new staff and teaching assistants
Linking Sets is awful. You need to be able to select a whole set of pupils and COPY them into other subject sets. As soon as you have a class that is not in line with "forms" then there is not a simple way to just copy them over. For example, PE w...
SO tedious to add one set and then another one using the painful dropdown menu. You need to at least be able to multiple select the sets from the huge dropdown (which also needs to be able to be filtered by year group).
Ability to change a student's timetable in advance
It would be so useful to have the ability to make class changes in advance of the event so that it doesn't have to be done on the day. I know other IMS systems allow this and the change automatically applies on the date selected. Class lists can t...

To be able to add a new student to multiple teaching sets at the same time
If a new student arrives, we have to open the teaching sets and click on "add students" one by one. It would be easier if I could go to the student's profile somewhere and add a list of the sets she/he would join as we do it when importing sets at...
Allow making set changes in the future or for specific dates
Currently one can only make changes to sets and classes to take effect immediately. Allowing one to make changes in advance would be very beneficial. Or to allow class/set enrolments for specific date ranges would also help.
