A real generated week

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

This is a complete week for a fictional primary school, generated by Bell Path and not tidied by hand: every class, every specialist rotation, and every classroom teacher’s planning time, exactly where it landed.

No signup, no payment, nothing to install. Start with the whole-school grid below, then check the planning time list to see that every classroom teacher got theirs.

Stringybark Creek Primary School is fictitious. It is modelled on a real Victorian primary school with every name and identifying detail replaced. The timetable itself is exactly what Bell Path generated.

Term 2 sample · refined

The whole school, one week.

Nineteen classes across 5 sessions a day. Each class teacher is named once on the left, so everything marked in the grid is a session somebody else is taking.

Monday

Monday at the school, every class. Each class teacher is named once beside their class; the grid marks only the sessions somebody else takes.

What a teacher receives

The same week, from one person's side of it.

This is the view a teacher opens, and the page they get handed. Planning time is marked, because the question every teacher asks first is when they get theirs.

The part that matters

All 22 classroom teachers got their planning time.

This is the reason the timetable exists, so here is where every teacher's release landed. Nobody is missing from this list.

The school’s specialists are not on this list, and that is correct rather than an omission. 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.

After the timetable

The duty roster the same week produced.

Built from the accepted timetable rather than from a second copy of it. Recess and lunch each have several staff on duty across the grounds, and the same two staff take before-school and after-school duty every day. This school has 29 weekly rosters and a whole-year fairness record behind them.

Questions

Is this a real school?
The timetable is real Bell Path output, but the school is fictitious. It is modelled on a real Victorian primary school with every name, email and identifying detail replaced from a fixed pool of invented names. No real staff member appears anywhere on this page.
Did a person arrange this timetable by hand afterwards?
No. Every session on this page is exactly where Bell Path placed it. Nothing has been tidied up for presentation, which is why you will see the ordinary lumpiness of a real week rather than a neat pattern.
Why do the specialists not appear in the planning-time list?
Because they are the ones providing the release. A classroom teacher gets planning time when a specialist takes their class. Specialists have their own planning entitlement, but it does not come from someone covering a class for them, so they never appear in a classroom-release list.
Can I explore this school properly rather than just reading a page?
Yes. Create a free account and choose "Explore a sample school first" on the setup screen. That loads this entire school into your account, including both generated versions, the yard duty rosters, a cover day and the operations calendar. It costs nothing and you can wipe it in one click when you are done.

When you are ready for your own

Your school, not a sample.

Setup is a set of guided steps, Final Check runs before you generate, and the cost is on the pricing page.
