Free tools
Three answers you should not have to book a demo to get.
These are the calculations an assistant principal ends up doing on paper at nine o’clock at night. They are free, they need no account, and they work whether or not you ever use Bell Path.

01
Planning time calculator
Weekly planning-time entitlement for any Australian state, full time or part time, using the same calculation Bell Path uses.
How much planning time is this teacher actually owed each week, and how does that change if they work three days instead of five?
Open tool02
Specialist coverage checker
Compare the planning time your school owes against the specialist sessions it can actually supply, before you build the timetable.
Is my specialist program big enough to release every classroom teacher, or am I about to build a timetable that cannot exist?
Open tool03
Yard duty fairness checker
Paste your term duty counts and see instantly who is carrying more than their share, and by how much.
Is our duty roster actually fair, and if a staff member asks me to prove it, what do I show them?
Open toolWhy these are free
Because the arithmetic is not the product.
A school that works out it is eleven sessions short of covering its planning time has learned something true and useful, whether it buys anything or not. The product is what happens next: building the week around that answer, and proving it before you publish.
No account, no email
Nothing here asks who you are. There is no gate, no download form, and no follow-up sequence for having used a calculator.
Nothing leaves your browser
Every calculation runs on your device. Staff names typed into the duty checker are never transmitted, which is deliberate, because they are staff names.
Same model as the product
The entitlement figures come from the model Bell Path uses to build real timetables, not a simplified version written for marketing.
When the arithmetic is the easy part
Bell Path builds the week around the answer.
Setup runs as a guided wizard, the entitlement check runs before you publish, and the timetable keeps working through the term as cover, duty, wet day plans and events.
