Free tools
Three free tools for primary school leaders.
These are the sums an assistant principal ends up doing on paper at nine o’clock at night. They are free, they need no account, and they are useful whether or not you ever use Bell Path.

Planning time calculator
How much planning time is this teacher owed each week, and how does that change if they work three days instead of five?
Weekly planning-time entitlement for any Australian state, full time or part time, using the same calculation Bell Path uses.
Try it nowSpecialist coverage checker
Is my specialist program big enough to release every classroom teacher, or am I about to build a timetable that cannot exist?
Compare the planning time your school owes against the specialist sessions it can supply, before you build the timetable.
Try it nowYard duty fairness checker
Is our duty roster fair, and if a staff member asks me to prove it, what do I show them?
Paste your term duty counts and see instantly who is carrying more than their share, and by how much.
Try it nowWhy these are free
Because the answer is useful whether or not you buy anything.
A school that works out it is eleven sessions short of covering its planning time has learned something true and useful. What Bell Path sells is what happens next: building the week around that answer, and checking it before you generate.
No account, no email
Nothing here asks who you are. There is no gate, no download form, and no follow-up email for having used a calculator.
Nothing leaves your browser
Every calculation runs on your device. Staff names typed into the duty checker never leave it.
Same calculation as the product
The entitlement figures come from the same calculation 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 is a set of guided steps, Final Check runs before you generate, and the timetable keeps working through the term as daily cover, yard duty, wet day plans and event timetables.
