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...
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...
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...
Add an additional option to the Exams Manager Candidate Special Arrangements called 'Coloured Paper
Students may have Exam Special Arrangements which specify that they need coloured paper. It would be helpful to have this added as a check box option that can be viewed alongside the others as it does not currently appear.

In the gradebook --> workbook view; we are able to pull the gender, form, year, house details next to the learner’s name but unable to pull through any another information a teacher may require while grading a learner. Eg: EAL, Gifted and Talen...
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).
Linking Sets should have a CORE set OR You should be able to EDIT what is LINKED
You need to have an edit function in Linked Sets. You should be able to unlink and link sets in ONE place. You have to jump through hoops to make an amendment and a mistake costs you hours in unlinking. If you cannot copy a subject set into anothe...
