The wizard walks the school through six steps: bell times, classes, staff, specialist subjects, meetings, and a final check on the agreements you carry in your head. Click any step to preview what setup actually looks like. You can even photograph a staff list with your phone and Bell Path reads the names in.

An empty primary school playground at mid-morning, shade sails casting long shadows over painted four-square lines, drink bottles lined on a bench.

Run yard duty

Every swap is checked before you keep it.

Click any two cells below. Bell Path tests the exchange against who is actually at school that day and the one-duty-per-day rule, then either lets it stand or tells you exactly what stopped it. Try moving Mrs Bennett onto a Thursday. Yearly load is tracked against each teacher's own share, so a 0.4 never carries a full-timer's roster.

Fairness across the year

Distance from each teacher's share

Every target scales with the days a teacher works, so a 0.4 does not carry a full-timer's load. Duties above or below that share, across the whole year:

TeacherYear

Mrs Bennett0.614/14Mrs Bennett is exactly on her yearly share of 14 duties.
Mrs Hooper0.49/10Mrs Hooper is 1 duty under a share of 10.
Ms Patel1.024/24Ms Patel is exactly on her yearly share of 24 duties.
Mr Nguyen0.614/14Mr Nguyen is exactly on her yearly share of 14 duties.
Mrs Chen0.613/14Mrs Chen is 1 duty under a share of 14.
Ms Singh1.024/24Ms Singh is exactly on her yearly share of 24 duties.
Ms Okafor1.025/24Ms Okafor is 1 duty over a share of 24.
Mrs Tan1.024/24Mrs Tan is exactly on her yearly share of 24 duties.

5 of 8 are exactly on share, 2 sit one under and 1 one over. Nobody across the 18 staff is further than a single duty either way, and next week's roster offers those three first.

Handle daily cover

A 7:42 AM phone call shouldn't blow up the week.

When a teacher rings in sick, choose the CRT once. Bell Path builds the day sheet, finds any specialist-slot spare time, and shows which classroom teacher can be released or paid back. Extra duty and missed release flow into a time-in-lieu ledger staff can see.

Four sessions go on the CRT sheet.

When 3B goes to specialist, the CRT has a spare hour. Daily Cover shows which classroom teacher can be released and records the owed-back time.

Bell Path is going to save me an incredible amount of time. After entering all our timetable requirements, I was impressed by how easy it was to review individual teachers, classes, and programs to ensure fairness and equity across the timetable.
