The ClassCover Calendar acts as a centralised hub for your school's casual bookings and events. Accessible to all staff with ClassCover access, it ensures everyone is working from the same calendar – giving a clear, consistent view of past, current, and upcoming bookings across your school.

Not only can you view bookings, but the calendar also allows you to:

  • Switch between Month and Week views to suit your preference.

  • Edit booking details or cancel bookings individually or in bulk.

  • Export booking data for selected dates.

  • Add external events like excursions, professional development days, or other non-ClassCover bookings – keeping everything organised in one place.

Viewing Your Bookings

The calendar displays:

  • All casual bookings made in ClassCover.

  • Any external events added by your school (such as excursions or PD days).

You can view both upcoming and historical bookings via the web or mobile app. Switch between Month View or Week View for easier navigation, depending on your preference.

Edit Booking Details

To view more details or make edits, simply click on the specific booking. From here, you can update:

  • Class Details: The class being covered and the casual replacing the teacher.

  • Absence Reason: Update or change the reason for the absence.

  • Leave Approval Status: Track the status of leave approval.

  • Comments: Add or edit comments for the casual.

  • Custom Fields: If your school uses custom fields (e.g., specific instructions or payroll details), you can edit these as well.


​Tip: Extra fields can be added to the Booking Details in Admin Settings. For more details on customising your ClassCover settings, check out this guide.

Adding External Bookings or Events

The calendar also allows you to manage external events (e.g., excursions or sports carnivals) and bookings made outside of ClassCover, ensuring everything is kept in the one place.

Need to Edit or Cancel a Booking?

If you need help with editing or cancelling a booking, you can find detailed instructions in our guide on managing bookings, which covers how to update, edit, or cancel bookings on ClassCover.

With these features, your ClassCover calendar becomes a powerful tool for managing bookings and keeping your school organised!
