A practical planning example
A school offers debate, music and robotics on Tuesday and Thursday. One teacher supervises both debate and robotics, so the sessions need different times.
Set up this workflow
- List each club occurrence with its group, duration, supervisor and room. Keep transport departure times in the planning brief.
- Record which supervisors can attend after lessons and which rooms are released at the end of the day.
- Protect any fixed collection time and check that no named group is booked into two clubs.
Prepare, review and publish
Choose your dates, timezone, open days and breaks. Set person and resource profiles before entering activities. Generate a candidate draft, inspect unplaced work and conflicts, and compare alternatives where useful. Keep manual review in the process: a quality score helps compare candidates and is not a guarantee of an optimal schedule.
What to check before rollout
Use the group view to check pupil-facing activity times and the person view to inspect supervision. Confirm safeguarding and collection arrangements outside the schedule.

Account access and outputs
Public demos use sample data. Creating workspaces and entering your own scheduling details require a verified email and active paid subscription. A verified email and active subscription are required for paid generation, publication and timetable exports. Paid access covers all five workspaces within your account scope. Use the live billing page for current pricing and available payment methods. Check exported PDF, Excel, Word or CSV files with the software your team uses before distribution.
