Planning

The timetable becomes the lesson. The weekly grid is fed by your calendar events; you fill each lesson with building blocks — and bundle several lessons into a unit.

Lessons

  • Take them from the calendar or create them manually (weekday, start, end, subject, class, room, colour).
  • Three planning states at a glance: open, in progress, planned.

Seven building blocks per lesson

  • Text block and heading — with formatting: bold, italic, underline, highlight, title and sub-headings, bulleted and numbered lists.
  • Image and PDF as attachments.
  • Video and material as links.
  • Handwriting — a canvas with a tool picker and background, on the iPad with the Apple Pencil.

Units

  • Join several lessons into a unit — with a focus view that shows only that unit.
  • Plans that have no lesson slot yet are surfaced, together with an assign a date button. No prepared lesson gets lost.

When the school changes the timetable

  • If a calendar event moves, timetable synchronisation speaks up: you see the moved events and decide — let all of them move along, move them individually, or keep the plan and detach it.
  • If an event is deleted, the plan is detached, not deleted — it stays in its unit in full.
  • When matching, the app allows 15 minutes of tolerance so that a slightly shifted lesson is still recognised.

Output

  • A lesson plan can be exported as a PDF.

How it connects

Planning has no events of its own — it lives off the calendar and off the classes and subjects in the shared database. That is exactly why it notices when the timetable changes.

What it deliberately does not do

  • No event management of its own. Events are created in the calendar module; planning attaches itself to them.
  • Video and material are links, not embedded files — images and PDFs are embedded.
  • Handwriting blocks exist on iPad and iPhone only. The PDF prints a note in their place so that nothing disappears silently.
