TimetableMaster
TimetableMaster is a school scheduling platform for generating timetables, handling staff substitutions and leave, and preparing student course schedules.
What TimetableMaster is
TimetableMaster is a school scheduling platform for generating timetables, handling staff substitutions and leave, and preparing student course schedules. Its generator arranges lessons around teacher availability, room capacity, building transitions and workload limits, with a drag-and-drop editor for adjustments. For staff absences, it ranks potential substitutes using subject familiarity, free time and cover already assigned that week. Staff can request full or half days off; approved leave is included in cover planning. The calendar supports holidays, exams, events and activities. A student-choice module gathers course preferences, creates sections, assigns faculty and rooms, and produces conflict-free schedules for individual students. Integrations include Veracross, PowerSchool, ManageBac and SchoolBase; other systems can exchange CSV or Excel files. The platform produces an import file for the school’s SIS importer rather than writing directly into the SIS. A Pro trial runs for 10 days without a credit card. PDF and Excel timetable downloads require a paid plan, and accounts are locked if no plan is selected after the trial.
