#Why can't I see any schedules?

If you see No schedules assigned yet., that subject has no days or times set yet — schedules are added one at a time from Assign Schedule. If instead you see No courses assigned yet., you need to assign subjects to the year first, using Assign Subject.

#What do Active and Inactive mean on a year?

  • Schools
  • Web

Status marks whether the academic year is the one currently in use. Active is the year being worked on; Inactive is for years that have finished or have not started yet. You can change it at any time from Edit Academic Year.

#How do I assign a head teacher to a course?

  • Schools
  • Web

The head teacher is assigned from the course, not from the year. In Calendars open the year, click the course, and in the Head Teacher panel click create. Until one is set the panel shows No head teacher assigned yet. One head teacher is assigned per course.

✅ Corrected 2026-08-26 from capture. The earlier draft placed this inside the academic year; it is on the course page, one level deeper (/calendars/educational-unit/:id/year/:yearId/course/:courseId). Screenshots: help/web/{es,en}/calendar-setup/04.png.

#How do I see the full timetable for a year?

  • Schools
  • Web

On Academic Years, click Schedule Preview on the year you want. It shows the schedules already set for that year. If nothing appears, no schedules have been added to the subjects yet.
