WELCOME TO TIMEWORKS
Timeworks is a highly experienced and professional organisation, providing curriculum and timetabling services to secondary schools. In addition, if required, full training is offered, working in your school, alongside your staff, on your own particular timetable.
We can help you model your curriculum, shape your teaching cycle, organise your school day, and construct your timetable. We can also manage your Student Subject-Choices Programmes.
“You retain control – we carry out the work.”
Experienced Head Teachers appreciate that timetabling requires specialist skills. Technical personnel may have the ICT background but lack first-hand knowledge of curriculum, classroom, and staffing issues. Similarly, it would be wasteful of a senior manager’s time to be involved in the nuts and bolts of timetable construction.
At Timeworks, we have the expertise. For 20 years, Don, our principle timetabler, was a Curriculum Deputy Headteacher in two large comprehensive schools. He has worked as a free-lance timetabler for a further 20 years, during which time he has produced over 200 timetables.
Typically, we use SIMS compatible software such as NOVA T6, SIMS Options and BROMCOM.
” Don did a fantastic job preparing our timetable. He took time to really get to know our requirements and was very patient throughout the process.”
Free Initial Consultation
If you are interested in any of these services, Don will be pleased to visit you for a preliminary discussion, with no obligation, and free of charge. Please visit the Contact page to get in touch.
Don has 20 years’ experience as a free-lance timetabler, and has built up a considerable network of people and institutions. He brings a wealth of experience and expertise, and will usually suggest numerous ways in which your curriculum and timetable can be improved.
