A primary school timetable example, exactly as Bell Path built it.

A complete week for one primary school: every class, every specialist rotation and every classroom teacher’s planning time.

Stringybark Creek Primary School is made up. Its staff, classes and timetable rules were invented for this sample.

Watch Bell Path build a timetable for the sample school

A real recorded run for Stringybark Creek Primary School, replayed in 45 seconds. You see every timetable Bell Path found as it searched, from its first to its best.

The whole-school week.

The Victorian sample, with 4 hours of planning time a week for a full-time teacher. Each class teacher is named once on the left, so everything marked in the grid is a session somebody else takes. Nothing has been moved by hand.

Every class at the school across the 5 days of the week. Each class teacher is named once beside their class; the grid marks only the sessions somebody else takes.

The same week for two of its teachers.

A full-time and a part-time teacher, each as they see their own week. A class at a specialist lesson beyond the teacher's own release is not counted as planning time, and the list further down leaves it out.

The school’s specialists are not on this list. A classroom teacher is released when a specialist takes their class. Specialists carry their own planning entitlement, but it does not come from somebody covering a class for them.

The duty roster the same week produced.

Built from the current timetable. Every duty has an area, so staff know where to stand.
