PP1 timetable sample helps your school prepare a reviewed PP1 weekly plan with approved allocations. A PP1 weekly plan should turn the school's approved requirements into a clear routine that teachers can use. The planning example below is illustrative and does not prescribe national lesson counts.
PP1 timetable sample: information to prepare
Start with the four records below. The review column explains what needs checking before the information is used. Add the school-specific value in your working copy and identify who will confirm it.
| Record | Review before use | School entry |
|---|---|---|
| Arrival and settling | Write the real start and finish times. Check the interval against the rest of the day instead of relying on period labels alone. | Enter confirmed value and reviewer |
| Guided play | Record the current school decision and the person who checked it. Resolve missing information before relying on it in the final plan. | Enter confirmed value and reviewer |
| Outdoor activity | Record the current school decision and the person who checked it. Resolve missing information before relying on it in the final plan. | Enter confirmed value and reviewer |
| Meal and rest routine | Record the current school decision and the person who checked it. Resolve missing information before relying on it in the final plan. | Enter confirmed value and reviewer |
A practical three-step approach
- Arrange short, varied activity blocks.
- Include transitions and supervision.
- Check the routine with the early-years teacher.
Worked school example
A play-based activity is followed by tidying, handwashing and a meal. Show the transitions rather than placing another formal lesson immediately afterwards.
Watch for this error: Copying another school's PP1 timetable without checking staffing, lesson allocations and bell times. The plan should expose that risk before staff rely on the result.
Editable PP1 weekly planning grid
This blank example deliberately avoids invented official lesson counts. Copy it into your preferred editor, replace the session labels with actual times, and enter the approved learning area, teacher and room in each teaching cell.
| Day | Opening session | Next teaching block | After-break session | Later teaching block |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Monday | Approved activity / teacher / room | Approved activity / teacher / room | Approved activity / teacher / room | Approved activity / teacher / room |
| Tuesday | Approved activity / teacher / room | Approved activity / teacher / room | Approved activity / teacher / room | Approved activity / teacher / room |
| Wednesday | Approved activity / teacher / room | Approved activity / teacher / room | Approved activity / teacher / room | Approved activity / teacher / room |
| Thursday | Approved activity / teacher / room | Approved activity / teacher / room | Approved activity / teacher / room | Approved activity / teacher / room |
| Friday | Approved activity / teacher / room | Approved activity / teacher / room | Approved activity / teacher / room | Approved activity / teacher / room |
Use this as an editable planning example
The table is an illustrative planning aid, not an official curriculum timetable. Replace the placeholders with the school-approved learning areas, lesson totals, teachers and real bell times. Add or remove periods to match your actual school day before using the grid.
Review the completed plan with the teacher responsible for this class. A useful class copy should agree with the school master and with every shared teacher or room it uses. Do not infer official weekly allocations from the example layout.
Final review and handover
Use this page to produce a reviewed PP1 weekly plan with approved allocations. Name the person responsible for the final check and keep a dated copy. If arrival and settling or guided play changes, review the relevant assumptions again before issuing a revised version.
For PP1 timetable sample, the most useful acceptance check is whether the example risk has been resolved in your own school records. Compare the result with the agreed requirements and leave any remaining problem clearly recorded for the school leadership.
Frequently asked questions
What should we prepare for PP1 timetable sample?
Begin with arrival and settling, guided play, outdoor activity and meal and rest routine. Check these records with the responsible school staff before using the plan. Arrange short, varied activity blocks.
What common mistake should the school avoid?
Copying another school's PP1 timetable without checking staffing, lesson allocations and bell times is a common risk in this situation. A play-based activity is followed by tidying, handwashing and a meal. Show the transitions rather than placing another formal lesson immediately afterwards. Check the affected records before approving or sharing the result.
What should the completed work contain?
The expected result is a reviewed PP1 weekly plan with approved allocations. Keep the assumptions and review decisions with it so another authorised member of staff can understand the plan and continue the work.
How can we check whether KTT fits this requirement?
Review the current features and try the official demonstration linked from the KTT homepage. Use your actual constraints in a small pilot. Confirm the selected edition and current access terms before paying.

Adapt the PP1 routine for 2027
Prepare the 2027 PP1 routine with the early-years teacher responsible for the group. Confirm arrival, care, meals, active play and any rest arrangements before choosing activity blocks. The illustrative grid should support a predictable day while allowing varied experiences. Do not replace every care or transition interval with a formal lesson merely to fill the page. Review supervision where rooms or play spaces are shared.
- Enter the 2027 academic year and confirmed school term.
- Review arrival, handwashing, meals and other care routines.
- Provide workable movement time between guided and outdoor activities.
- Confirm supervision and shared-space arrangements with the PP1 teacher.
Use the 2027 school planning hub to coordinate this work with other grades. Confirm current requirements with the official KICD curriculum designs before final approval.
