How the status of lessons shows on the platform, and what this means

The colours and icons on lessons in the timetable indicate their current 'status'. Find the key next to your timetable on the platform, and also here:

Unplanned: A lesson that currently contains no teaching content.

Draft: A lesson that has teaching content added, but has not been set as Planned by the teacher. Teaching content (Objectives, Classwork & Homework) within Draft lessons is not visible to pupils on their platform accounts.

Planned: A lesson that has had teaching content added, and has been set as Planned by the teacher. Teaching content (Objectives, Classwork & Homework) within Planned lessons is visible to pupils on their platform accounts.

Taught: A planned lesson can be marked as taught. This changes the colour on the timetable, and how the objectives are marked in your Scheme of Work progress for the appropriate class. The teaching content remains available to pupils.

Lesson Contains Quiz: This lesson has a Quiz in it. Quizzes are available to a classes' pupils on the platform as soon as they are generated. These only display on the pupil dashboard page on the day of the lesson, and for 2 weeks after until completed.

Switch Lesson: If you are assigned to 2 or more classes that have lessons scheduled at the same time (perhaps on a colleagues timetable) then you are able to access those lessons by clicking on the 'Switch Lesson' icon. See what your colleague is planning for your shared class.

Taught by colleague: This icon shows for lessons of an assigned class that are on a colleagues timetable. These lessons will display in a lighter grey colour too.

You can alter the status of a lesson by clicking into it, adding objectives, marking it as planned or taught, and creating quizzes in the lesson planning mode.
