Timetabling Clause Samples
The Timetabling clause establishes the schedule or timeline for the performance of obligations under the agreement. It typically outlines key dates, deadlines, or milestones that parties must adhere to, such as delivery dates, project phases, or completion times. By clearly defining when specific actions or deliverables are due, this clause helps coordinate activities, manage expectations, and prevent disputes related to timing or delays.
Timetabling. The following limits shall be placed on the times that a Professor/Instructor would be expected to teach:
10.4.1.1.1 No Professor/Instructor shall be required to teach more than three consecutive one hour classes, labs or seminars, or more than 2 consecutive classes, labs or seminars of duration more than one hour each. No Professor/Instructor shall be required to conduct more than four consecutive hours of class, lab or seminar.
10.4.1.1.2 Where a Professor/Instructor has child care commitments, and where the Professor/Instructor makes a written request, the University shall make every effort to ensure that Professor/Instructor has no classes scheduled before 9:00 am.
10.4.1.1.3 Professors/Instructors shall be entitled to a minimum of one continuous hour of unscheduled time in the period between 11:30 and 14:30.
10.4.1.1.4 Professors/Instructors shall be entitled to a minimum of twelve continuous hours of unscheduled time between workdays.
10.4.1.1.5 Where a Professor/Instructor is required to teach at more than one campus, there shall be reasonable provision for travel time in the Professor’s/Instructor's teaching schedule.
10.4.1.1.6 The University shall make every effort to ensure that no Professor/Instructor shall be required to conduct a class, a lab or a seminar that ends more than 9 hours after the start of their first class, lab or seminar of that day.
10.4.1.1.7 Where a full-time Professor/Instructor is assigned upper level courses and is taking an upper-level release in that academic year, and where the Professor/Instructor makes a written request, the Professor/Instructor shall have no classes, labs or seminars scheduled on at least one of Monday to Friday.
10.4.1.1.8 All Professors/Instructors shall be entitled to two consecutive days off per week, and where a Professor/Instructor teaches any part of a course (lab, lecture or seminar) outside of the hours of 8:00 to 17:30 Monday through Friday, the University shall make every effort to provide that Professor/Instructor with a third day off during the week.
10.4.1.1.9 Where a faculty member is assigned as part of her/his teaching duties to be on call outside of their regular scheduled teaching assignment, the University shall make every effort to provide that faculty member with an additional day off for each two weeks of on call duty providing there is no additional expense.
Timetabling. At the Secondary Campus, students undertake lessons through a rotational timetable structure. This ensures the students do not miss out on the same class each week. Where possible, a set time may be negotiated, however first preference will be given to senior students. All Primary Campus students have set times as discussed by negotiation with the class teacher and student/parents. Lessons will be scheduled at 30-minute intervals throughout the school day. Please note that specific lesson time requests will be considered (such as avoiding clashes with certain subjects), although the Instrumental Program Co-ordinator cannot guarantee that specific requests will be granted. Most students will be required to occasionally have lessons over recess and lunch breaks (some students request this). Students, particularly at the Secondary campus where lessons rotate, are responsible to check their lesson time for each week and be on time for their lesson. This can be done via the Instrumental Noticeboard in the Primary/Secondary Music Department or via the college website at ▇▇▇▇://▇▇▇.▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇.▇▇▇.▇▇/college/music- program/tuition-timetables-and-forms At the primary campus if students require a lesson time change, this must be arranged more than 12 hours prior to the lesson time in conversation with the instrumental tutor and the parent. At the secondary campus, if students need to swap a lesson time due to a special circumstance they are to do so with another student and they are to organise this with the student involved, alter the timetable and notify both ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ (Music Administrator) and the Instrumental teacher that this has occurred and why. A note attached to the instrumental noticeboard, addressed to the teacher is sufficient if they are unable to talk to the teacher directly. Alternatively, the Music Administrator at Secondary (▇▇▇ ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇) can make changes if sufficient notice is given (24 hours prior to the lesson time).
Timetabling. The following limits shall be placed on the times that a University- College professor/instructor would be expected to teach:
10.4.1.1.1 No University-College professor/instructor shall be required to teach more than three consecutive one hour classes, labs or seminars, or more than 2 consecutive classes, labs or seminars of duration more than one hour each. No University-College professor/instructor shall be required to conduct more than four consecutive hours of class, lab or seminar.
10.4.1.1.2 Where a University-College professor/instructor has child care commitments, and where the University-College professor/instructor makes a written request, the University-College shall make every effort to ensure that University-College professor/instructor has no classes scheduled before 9:00 am.
Timetabling. 15.1. The School and the Union recognise that while the main (Houghton Street) site is being redeveloped, the School’s ability to timetable classes and lectures around certain events is severely restricted. The School will, however, use its best endeavours to limit classes and lectures taking place on Wednesday afternoons in keeping with the agreement reached through the Student Affairs Committee in 2010 and also during Friday prayers. If the Union’s General Secretary wishes to pursue the matter, s/he will approach the Academic Registrar.
Timetabling. Lessons for students in Years 7-9 will occur throughout the school day and occasionally after school and will be rotated as far as possible. Lessons for students in Years 10-13 will be scheduled before or after school, in breaks, or during study periods wherever possible although on occasion lessons may begin or end during class time. In these cases, the Music Administrator will endeavour to prevent this from affecting the same class more than twice per term. Timetables for the term will be emailed to students and parents by the Music Administrator before the first music lesson of each term. Copies will be displayed on the music notice board. Students and parents will be notified by email of any changes to the published timetable, such as room changes or amendments to VMT availability. If a VMT is absent, their students will be notified by email as soon as is practicable and notices will be displayed in the Music department. Further details can be found in clause 1.10.
Timetabling. The Franchisee shall, in applying its timetabling resource in terms of the Franchise Agreement and otherwise, look to ensure that journey times are, in line with Scottish Ministers' core objectives in Scotland's Railways, at least preserved and, where possible, are improved. The Franchisee shall use all reasonable endeavours in their planning and interactions with industry partners to promote, secure and operate improved journey times. The Franchisee shall consider in all timetable changes all opportunities to improve journey times and implement such changes. Where any proposal is made by another operator to vary its services or any proposal is made by Network Rail to change access rights in a way which could adversely affect journey times the Franchisee shall as soon as reasonably possible inform Scottish Ministers and consult Scottish Ministers on its proposed response and shall carry out such actions as Scottish Ministers shall reasonably require to oppose such changes.
Timetabling. Headteachers will require to timetable carefully so that each teacher’s non-class contact time is organised for each week of the session. The National Agreement makes clear that each teacher’s class contact time should be 22.5 hours per week. There is no provision in the scheme for aggregation, which is the practice of carrying time over from one week to the next in order to allow teachers a longer period free from class contact, and the authority cannot advocate this practice, as it would be in breach of National Agreements on Conditions of Service. While individual schools might wish to negotiate such an option, they would have to understand that any teacher could refuse to take part in such a scheme, even if the majority of colleagues were in favour of it. Equally, a new member of staff would have every right to refuse to participate, as would a temporary teacher in the school. Headteachers and their staff should agree arrangements to ensure that classes are handed over on time, e.g. from PE teacher to class teacher and vice versa so that entitlement to non- contact time is not compromised. Where possible Headteachers should consider timetabling certain teachers (e.g. stage partners) to have concurrent RICCT to support joint planning, etc.
Timetabling. Lessons for girls in years 7-9 will occur throughout the school day and occasionally after school, and will be rotated as far as possible. Lessons for girls in years 10 to 13 will be scheduled before or after school, in breaks, or during study periods wherever possible although on occasion lessons may begin or end during class time. In which case the Music Secretary will endeavour to prevent this from affecting the same class more than twice per term. Timetables will be emailed to students and parents by the Music Secretary before the first music lesson of each term. Copies will be displayed on the music notice board. Students and parents will be notified by email of any changes to the published timetable, such as room changes or amendments to peripatetic staff availability. If a peripatetic music teacher is absent, the pupils will be notified by email as soon as is practicable and notices will be displayed in the Music department. Further details can be found in clause 1.10.
Timetabling. If necessary, DrumWise will keep a register of students’ attendance and inform the appropriate member of staff of any poor attendance. It is the responsibility of the School to ensure pupils attend their lessons regularly and on time. DrumWise may need to change the lesson time or day but we will give the School two weeks notice. In the unlikely event that the regular teacher cannot attend the scheduled lesson(s) it may be necessary to substitute with another DBS checked DrumWise teacher.
