Timetable & registers · for Schools, academies & clubs

The week's timetable and every register on a tablet

Classes, teachers and studios sit on one weekly timetable with clashes flagged. Teachers take the register in class, and the office follows up absences the same day.

Take the register

Teachers tap each student present, late or absent in class. Absences go to the office the same day.

What it does day to day

You set each class once with its teacher, studio, day and time, and the timetable fills the term around half terms and closures. Move a class for one date, book cover or change a studio, and teachers, students and parents see the change.

At the start of class, the teacher opens the register on a tablet or phone and taps each student present, late or absent. Once submitted, the register locks, any later change records who made it, and absences go to the office to follow up.
