Platform
Everything a primary school needs to plan, cover, and communicate the week — without the spreadsheet spaghetti.
No clashes, no compromises
Part-timers, job-shares, dual-role specialists, APT, meetings, room limits — enter it all and get a timetable that actually works. No manual juggling.
Every teacher gets a fair go
Rosters that stay fair across the whole year, not just this week. Camps, credited leave, and meetings are accounted for automatically.
Sorted before the first bell
Teacher calls in sick? Pick the date, mark the absence, and get a CRT plan in seconds — with the right staff suggested first.
Rain won't slow you down
Outdoor duty roster meets rainy morning. Yard duty teachers are mapped to indoor rooms automatically. One PDF, ready for the staffroom.
How It Works
A guided wizard walks you through staff, classes, subjects, rooms, and constraints. About 30 minutes for a full primary school.
Hit generate. Your timetable — with all availability, meetings, APT, and room constraints resolved — lands in under two minutes. If something can't fit, you'll know exactly why.
Export teacher packs, class views, and PDF reports. Pin it to the staffroom board or email it out — your Monday morning is sorted.
Features
Not a generic scheduler. Every constraint, rule, and edge case is modelled on real primary school operations.
Specialists who also have a classroom, and teachers who share a class across days — handled natively.
SIT, PLC, and staff meetings stay locked in. The solver works around them, not through them.
Each teacher's APT hours tracked and verified against their entitlement. Automatically.
See constraint warnings before you generate. Catch problems before they become a 45-minute redo.
Save, compare, and restore timetable versions. Every generation is a recoverable snapshot.
Teacher packs, class views, yard duty rosters, and cover plans — ready to print or email.
From the staffroom
“I used to lose two full days to the timetable every term — shuffling part-timers around in a spreadsheet and hoping nothing clashed. Bell Path did it in twenty minutes and nailed the job-shares I always struggle with.”
“Yard duty was always a headache. Someone would look at the roster and say 'I've done way more than everyone else' and honestly, I couldn't prove them wrong. Now the data is right there — fair across the whole year, not just this week.”
“We have three job-share pairs and a specialist who also takes a Grade 2 class. I explained it to three other timetable tools and they all said it was too complex. Bell Path just handled it.”
“A teacher called in sick at quarter to eight. I opened Daily Cover, marked the absence, and had a CRT plan printed for the staffroom before the first bell. That used to take me until recess.”
Bell Path handles the timetable so you can focus on what actually matters — your students and your team.
