We currently have a few subjects (e.g. Philosophy of Religion and PSHE) which we rotate each half-term or term. At the moment to keep timetables correct and so registers correctly auto-default for staff we are adding/removing the lessons from the ...
Timetablers really need an Options Module, where choices can be made through the Pupil portal. Classes created could then be fed through to Teaching Manager.
Locate free objects & periods exportable to Excel format

A way to make ‘complete’ a whole class in ONE CLICK rather than having to go through each pupil individually?
Our old system was set up so that a teacher marked the whole class as complete, so if they had nothing to say about students they still recorded the fact that they had finished entering data for the class. Some teachers will have over 150 students...
