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...

In teacher cover view can secondary come before primary to save clicking over.

In our school, as I imagine lots of schools secondary use iSAMS for cover a lot more than primary. Would it be possible on teacher cover view for the default to be secondary as opposed to each day everyone having to click over to secondary? (i.e. ...

Suspend Timetable for part days

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...

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...
