In Teaching set lists, setting register flag and notes as default selection

When viewing Teaching set lists it would be advantageous to have Register Flag and Register notes set up as a default option. Teachers may forget to tick these, and these notes can be quite important in how a lesson can run.

Multiple registers is presently an all or nothing feature. Suggestion for a future update whereby lunch / tutor time can be the exception to this rule e.g. when a teacher teaches the same class before lunch as after lunch

A student being present the lesson before lunch say Physics but then leaves school at lunch time/during pm tutor time is still being marked automatically present for the Physics lesson after lunch.

Linked teachers emailed about set changes

Currently only staff of teaching groups that a student is explicitly added to are notified. If classes are linked, the teachers of linked classes are not informed.

Duplicate private candidate number

It seems possible to allocate the same candidate number to several private candidates. Please could there be a check to stop this happening? It is currently not possible to sort on candidate number in the private candidate view. It would be helpfu...

Mark teachers unavailable during Absent and Free periods

It would be helpful to be able block times when staff are unavailable (due to ad hoc meetings etc) during their non-teaching periods. This would prevent them from being allocated cover.
