Summary

How to set up your school structure and begin creating your draft timetable in MySchool Year.

Getting started:

• Click New Draft.
• Enter a name for your timetable.
• Select the academic year for the draft.
• Define the structure of your week (each day follows the same pattern).
• Enter your term dates and any non-teaching periods.

Term dates

• Add the start and end date for each term. Include half-term breaks if required.

Non-teaching days

• Add any dates when the school is closed to students (for example, bank holidays or INSET days).

Set up your school day

Configure the structure of each day by defining:

• Start and end time
• Registration
• Lunch
• Breaks

Any remaining time is automatically available as teaching periods, where lessons can be placed.

Timetable rotation

Choose a 1-, 2- or 3-week timetable rotation. You can set the rotation to continue week-by-week, or to reset to Week 1 after a half-term break.

Edit the structure later

If you need to change your school day setup after saving, select Edit structure and update your timings and breaks.
