Set a teacher's availability and daily class cap

A 60-second screen recording of a real school doing exactly this — and the same 7 steps written out below, in the labels you'll see on screen.

How to set a teacher's availability and daily class cap

1Go to Schedule in the Learning section of the sidebar
2Switch the timetable to the Teachers view
3Open the 'Edit availability…' dropdown and pick the teacher
4In the Availability dialog, set 'Max classes per day' (advisory — the scheduler warns past it; blank = no cap)
5Pick a brush (Unavailable or Prefer not) and paint the grid where the teacher can't be scheduled — part-time days, planning periods
6Use the erase brush to clear painted cells
7Click Save availability — the scheduler now warns on 'Prefer not' windows and blocks drops onto 'Unavailable' ones, and these windows also rank substitutes in the sub packet

A tap per kid on attendance, bell periods and breaks behind the schedule, and one school calendar every family and student sees in their portal.
