Set up your school week

1. Choose Download Excel template. Keep the Teachers, Classes, Subjects, Rooms and Allocations sheet names and headings. This importer uses the KTT template, rather than automatically mapping every existing school workbook.
2. List each teacher, class/stream and subject once. Add special rooms only when needed.
3. In Allocations, enter Class, Subject, Teacher, Sessions per Week and Length (1–3). The names must match your lists; leading/trailing spaces and letter case are ignored. Preferred Time can be Any time, Morning or Afternoon. A blank room means General Classroom.
4. Choose Import completed Excel, inspect the preview, correct reported errors and apply the additions. Existing allocations stay in place; matching rows are skipped, including changed counts. To change an existing count, edit it in Lesson allocation.

Sessions are meetings; periods are teaching slots. Weekly periods = sessions × length. Length 1 means single, 2 means double and 3 means triple. For example, 5 sessions with Length 2 uses 10 periods, not 5.

KTT does not decide that Maths or Science must have doubles from the subject name. Enter your school-approved weekly requirements. A double uses two consecutive teaching periods and cannot cross a break. Select a laboratory or other special room when required; KTT checks class, teacher and room constraints during scheduling.

Maths: 3 singles + 1 double = 5 periods/week. Science: 2 singles + 1 double = 4 periods/week. Use separate rows for singles and doubles for the same teacher, subject and class.
