TIME THAT WORKS FOR TEACHING
See what fits before filling the timetable.
Use a first capacity estimate to discuss the teaching day. Enter the time available, individual session length and changeover allowance. Confirm the real teaching format and staffing with your provider.
MAKE ROOM FOR THE MUSIC
How many places fit your window?
This model gives one learner an individual session at each available practice station. Choose timings for your own planning discussion; these are not prescribed lesson lengths.
Adjust the example assumptions, then calculate your plan.

What the calculation includes.
Slots per station = whole slots that fit, allowing changeover only between learners. Places per window = slots × stations. Windows for the pupil list = pupils ÷ places, rounded up. A final changeover is not added after the last slot.
Unused minutes are a buffer, not extra lesson places. The model does not check staffing, instrument acoustics, accessibility, school policy or available teaching capacity. Confirm the actual pupil setup and supplier support before using a timetable.
