Reports | Curriculum Analysis | Teacher Departments

This report yields an analysis of staff utilisation:

I will explain the report fragment above by way of example, looking at Mrs Abell.

Background information

Here is the information from Plan | Teacher Departments, showing the anticipated period loading overall (19) and for various subjects:

Here is what she has been assigned on the curriculum plan (Classes screen). Note that this includes the non-class codes 11D (registration) and PPA.

Here is her timetable, showing what she has actually been scheduled to do:

Understanding the report

The subjects appearing in the report are those recorded against Mrs Abell in Plan | Teacher Departments.

For each subject, the report shows three associated numbers:

The number to the right of the subject is the subject loading from Plan | Teacher Departments:

The number below the subject is the number allocated in the curriculum plan (i.e. Classes screen):

The remaining number (bottom-right) is the number of periods actually scheduled:

++ indicates a discrepancy, for one or more subjects or NCCs, between what loading and the curriculum plan. The three associated figures are aggregated for all subjects/NCCs involved. For Mrs Abell, the figures mean:

· There is an overall discrepancy of 2 periods between subject loading (in Plan | Teacher Departments) and the curriculum plan. This is due to Sc, where she has been given a loading of 10 periods, but has been planned for 12 (NCCs do not figure in Plan | Teacher Departments and do not affect this figure)

· Overall, she has been planned for 6 periods of subjects/NCCs where there is a discrepancy and which are not included in the discrepancy figure, and has been scheduled for 7 such periods. The subjects and NCCs in question are:

o 11D (registration – 4 periods planned, 5 scheduled)

o PPA (2 periods planned, 2 scheduled)
