Weekly plans on the academic calendar

Plans tied to calendar weeks

“Week of 12 May” means something when it references the school’s academic calendar - not Google Week 20. Teachers pick week and section; objectives, resources, and homework links stay visible to HOD review queue.

Teacher daily workflow

Duplicate last year’s plan as template, adjust for this year’s syllabus pacing. Attach PDFs or link homework module entries. Submit for optional HOD sign-off before week starts. Substitutes see read-only plan when covering class.

• Templates per subject and grade
• Copy forward from prior term
• Link to syllabus topic codes
• Visibility scoped to department heads

Coordinator oversight

Dashboard shows missing plans by teacher before Monday audit. Comment thread requests revision without email chains. Coverage map highlights syllabus units with no planned activity yet.

Homework and assessment alignment

Link plan entries to published homework for parent visibility consistency. Exam week plans flag revision sessions distinct from new content introduction.

Substitute and cover context

Cover teacher opens period view with attached plan and emergency activity block. Reduces “free period” when regular teacher absent.

Storage and IP

Plans remain school property in tenant storage - exportable on contract exit. External resource links validated; uploaded files virus-scanned per platform policy.

Gradual adoption

Require plans for one department pilot term before whole-staff mandate. Pair with syllabus publish so teachers are not planning in vacuum.
