Cancel or postpone a class without phoning everyone
In ClassTablet a teacher presses Cancel Class or Postpone on any upcoming date in the routine. Only that date changes; the rest of the weekly routine stays as it was. The classroom's students and parents get an in-app and push notice, and the routine marks it Cancelled or Rescheduled.
This comes with every plan. Today, news of a class called off for a sudden holiday or a power cut goes out as a group message and one phone call after another. The two pages below show how cancelling and moving a date work.
Features in this area
- One extra class without touching the routine
To add a revision class before exams or move one day's lesson to another hour, give the special class sheet a date and times. The weekly routine stays intact.
- Lift the change you made by mistake
A cancellation, a postponement and a special class are all the same kind of change. Remove Special Class under the row, confirm, and the change is lifted.
- The class list tells you what is really on that day
Pick a date in the class list and you see that day as it really is: cancelled classes gone, moved ones at their new time, and extras marked Special.
- Cancel one class and notify everyone in one tap
Press Cancel Class on one date in the routine. ClassTablet tells students and parents in the app and by push, stops that day's reminder and keeps the rest.
- Move a class to another day without arranging a makeup class
Move one class to another day or time for an exam or holiday. ClassTablet updates the routine, moves the reminder and notifies students and parents.
Frequently asked questions
Does cancelling one class delete the whole routine?
No. Only the date you picked is cancelled. From the next week the routine runs on its usual day and time, with nothing to set up again.
Do parents hear about a cancellation?
Yes, if the parent is linked to their child in ClassTablet. When a class is cancelled or postponed, both the student and the parent get an in-app and push notification.
Can a class that already ended be cancelled?
No. Once its end time has passed, the Cancel Class and Postpone buttons disappear, so an old session's attendance or record cannot be changed by mistake.
