The Timetable Problem

Timetables take many forms; from software programmes to photo-copy sheets, or even ‘back of a cigarette packet’ option

Whichever method is preferred, timetable systems must juggle the same complex information & resource variables; Teaching staff, Class rooms and the ever changing curriculum

These have to be allocated to the daily teaching periods taking care no double bookings or over allocations

Visualisation

The key to a successful Timetable is visualisation. Software systems take care of the simple ‘routine’ planning found at the start of Timetables but the final and more complex resource allocations are more difficult

A complete, clear and totally visual system overview is required to spot timetabling opportunities and eliminate errors in your planning
