Platform

One platform. Four essentials.

Everything a primary school needs to plan, cover, and communicate the week — without the spreadsheet spaghetti.

No clashes, no compromises

Timetable Generation

Part-timers, job-shares, dual-role specialists, APT, meetings, room limits — enter it all and get a timetable that actually works. No manual juggling.

  • Part-time, job-share, and dual-role staff handled natively
  • Meetings and APT requirements baked in
  • Keeps solving until it finds a valid timetable — even with difficult staffing

Every teacher gets a fair go

Yard Duty

Rosters that stay fair across the whole year, not just this week. Camps, credited leave, and meetings are accounted for automatically.

  • Year-to-date fairness tracking across all terms
  • Camps, meetings, and leave automatically credited
  • Wet day group management built in

Sorted before the first bell

Daily Cover

Teacher calls in sick? Pick the date, mark the absence, and get a CRT plan in seconds — with the right staff suggested first.

  • Smart spare-slot release suggestions
  • Classroom teachers suggested before leadership
  • PDF cover sheets ready for the staffroom

Rain won't slow you down

Wet Day Plans

Outdoor duty roster meets rainy morning. Yard duty teachers are mapped to indoor rooms automatically. One PDF, ready for the staffroom.

  • Linked to your live yard duty roster
  • Group-based room assignment
  • One-click PDF for same-day distribution

How It Works

From setup to staff handouts in three steps.

01

Set up your school

A guided wizard walks you through staff, classes, subjects, rooms, and constraints. About 30 minutes for a full primary school.

02

Generate in one click

Hit generate. Your timetable — with all availability, meetings, APT, and room constraints resolved — lands in under two minutes. If something can't fit, you'll know exactly why.

03

Hand it to your team

Export teacher packs, class views, and PDF reports. Pin it to the staffroom board or email it out — your Monday morning is sorted.

Features

Built for how schools actually operate.

Not a generic scheduler. Every constraint, rule, and edge case is modelled on real primary school operations.

Dual-role & job-share

Specialists who also have a classroom, and teachers who share a class across days — handled natively.

Meeting protection

SIT, PLC, and staff meetings stay locked in. The solver works around them, not through them.

APT compliance

Each teacher's APT hours tracked and verified against their entitlement. Automatically.

Live validation

See constraint warnings before you generate. Catch problems before they become a 45-minute redo.

Version control

Save, compare, and restore timetable versions. Every generation is a recoverable snapshot.

PDF exports

Teacher packs, class views, yard duty rosters, and cover plans — ready to print or email.

From the staffroom

Principals who've made the switch.

I used to lose two full days to the timetable every term — shuffling part-timers around in a spreadsheet and hoping nothing clashed. Bell Path did it in twenty minutes and nailed the job-shares I always struggle with.

SM

Sarah Mitchell

Principal, Westbrook Primary, VIC

Yard duty was always a headache. Someone would look at the roster and say 'I've done way more than everyone else' and honestly, I couldn't prove them wrong. Now the data is right there — fair across the whole year, not just this week.

JN

James Nguyen

Assistant Principal, Maplewood PS, VIC

We have three job-share pairs and a specialist who also takes a Grade 2 class. I explained it to three other timetable tools and they all said it was too complex. Bell Path just handled it.

RT

Rachel Thornton

Principal, Banksia Park Primary, VIC

A teacher called in sick at quarter to eight. I opened Daily Cover, marked the absence, and had a CRT plan printed for the staffroom before the first bell. That used to take me until recess.

Bell Path handles the timetable so you can focus on what actually matters — your students and your team.
