We previously used a table format for the timetable on the old portal, which was significantly easier to view. In contrast, the new version displays the timetable as a day list, which is more difficult to navigate and less clear at a glance.
Based on user feedback and internal testing, the table format was preferred for its clarity and ease of navigation. Additionally, users emphasized the importance of having teacher email addresses visible on the timetable to facilitate quicker and more direct communication with the appropriate staff members.
I agree with this entirely - it would be great to have some customisation control over how this feature displays, either at the school end or the user end. Parents are not finding the 'new' format easy to decipher. Even if there was a way to import the pdf settings from Timetable Manager it would be an improvement.
Yes - we have a 2 week timetable and it lists Monday lessons for both weeks before listing Tuesday.
Please could the nice pdf version (that we can produce in iSAMS as teachers) be available for parents to download when they want to export their child's timetable from the portal.
