Set up a family conference window
Create appointment availability for the intended teacher and class.
Before you begin
Have the date, teacher, class and available times ready.
Step by step
- Open Conference days and choose Create a window.
- Choose Teacher and Class, then set Date, Starts, Ends, Slot length and Place.
- Review and save the window. Confirm the expected free slots appear.
- When ready for families to book, choose Announce to families; saving the window alone does not announce it.
- Review Families who have not booked. Use Book for a family only for an agreed time.
- Check the final schedule; use Close window when new bookings should stop.
Check the result
The window and its booking/announcement state are clear to the office.
A useful check
Confirm the displayed school timezone. If a family cannot book, check their child link and the applicable window.
If the result is different, check the account and school first, then contact the team with the task and error wording.
