Report for both room closures + room changes

When a report is run on room closures and room changes it only shows the rooms where there has been a room change, not where a room has only been closed (and there are no room changes). I would like to be able to run a report with all the rooms th...

Administering room cover across a long period of time

The cover manager has the ability to close rooms for specific time periods each day. If the closure is for just one day, the administrative work is relatively minimal. However, when closures extend over a longer period, the administrative workload...

Sending room cover notification to staff and students by default

When publishing cover, the teacher cover boxes are ticked for 'Send to covering teachers / Send to covered teachers' by default but with room cover you have to remember to tick the box for 'Send to coverering rooms / Send to covered rooms' every d...

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...

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...

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...

Link between unavailable staff and cover needed

It would be useful if when you added a member of staff as unavailable they system checked if they were already allocated to cover and alerted or removed the cover.

Suspend for a period

It is amazing to be able to suspend a year group who are out on a trip as it means their lessons don't need covering and staff who are teaching those lessons are freed for cover. However, it would be AMAZING if this could also be applied to parts ...
