How to create a Complete Timetable Template?
A complete Timetable Template is usually presented as a grid with timetable days as column; and periods / timetable slots as rows that shows number of periods available in that particular day, and what time each period starts and the duration of that period. This template will then be used for timetable creation, where the subject and teacher are inserted into the timetable based on the allocated slots.
Some schools may already have timetable template used in previous academic year and would like to use the same template for new academic year.
