Teacher Planner

Read full description

Schedora is the teacher planner built for school schedules that don’t fit a normal Monday-to-Friday calendar. Create your real A/B, rotating, block-style, weekly, or custom schedule once, plan lessons against it, and handle one-off changes without rebuilding everything. YOUR SCHOOL SCHEDULE, AS IT ACTUALLY WORKS Not every Monday is the same. (A Day) can become (B Day) or (Holiday) without changing the schedule you normally teach. Schedora is designed around that reality. BUILD THE SCHEDULE YOU TEACH Choose the structure that matches your school: • Weekly schedules for consistent weekday patterns • A/B schedules for alternating school days • Rotating schedules for Day 1, Day 2, Day 3, and longer cycles • Custom schedules when different days use different classes, times, or durations Set class names, start and end times, optional rooms, and the schedule days where each class belongs. Preview what Schedora understood before generating your schedule. CHANGE ONE DAY — KEEP THE REST This is where Schedora is different. Your normal schedule and a specific calendar date are treated separately. When school changes for one day, you can adjust that date instead of editing your recurring pattern. Use date-specific changes for situations such as: • A Day becoming B Day • No-school days • One-off custom schedules • Cancelled classes • Changed class times or rooms The goal is simple: make the exception without breaking the rule. KNOW WHAT’S HAPPENING TODAY Open Schedora and focus on the day in front of you. The Today view is organized around what matters now: • what you’re teaching now • what comes next • what is later today • what changed from the normal schedule Schedule state stays visible, so A Day, B Day, rotation days, no-school days, and changed dates are easy to understand without studying a dense calendar grid. SEE THE WEEK WITHOUT LOSING THE ROTATION Use Week view for broader context while keeping each date’s schedule-day state visible. Rotating days stay separate from fixed weekday labels, so the plan reflects the schedule model you created rather than forcing every week into the same pattern. PLAN LESSONS IN CONTEXT Lesson planning stays intentionally lightweight. Open a class occurrence and add the lesson without re-entering information the schedule already knows. Add: • lesson title • notes • tasks The class, date, schedule day, and time stay connected to the lesson, helping you move from “What am I teaching today?” to planning the lesson with fewer steps. MADE FOR TEACHERS WITH COMPLICATED TIMETABLES Schedora is especially useful for middle-school and high-school teachers working with: • A/B and block schedules • multi-day rotations and cycle days • variable class lengths It can also fit art, music, PE, special education, library, STEM, language, and other teachers whose schedules do not repeat neatly every Monday through Friday. A PLANNER, NOT ANOTHER SCHOOL SYSTEM Schedora focuses on the planning problem it is built to solve. It is not trying to replace your gradebook, LMS, student information system, attendance platform, or district software. Instead, it gives your teaching schedule a flexible structure and keeps everyday lesson planning close to that schedule. Built around one principle: Your schedule is complicated. Your planner shouldn’t be. Create the schedule your school actually uses. See the day clearly. Change exceptions without rebuilding the recurring plan. Then get back to teaching.
