Required core plus electives at Regular, Honors and AP level — each student a different mix. Schedual builds the master schedule and sections around real course requests, with no student double-booked.
A comprehensive high school runs on individual course requests. Students share a required core — English, a social study, PE — then choose electives across levels, from Regular to Honors to AP. No two schedules are quite alike, and the master schedule has to place enough sections of each course, in the right rooms, so that every student’s requests fit without a conflict.
Software worth its license has to build from course requests up: read what every student asked for, decide how many sections of each course to run and when, size those sections to your rooms, and fit each student’s day with no clashes — honoring graduation requirements and singleton AP courses that can only run one period.
The tool should read every student’s requests and decide how many sections of each course to run — not make you set section counts by hand and hope they balance.
The same subject runs at several levels with different section sizes. The scheduler has to keep levels distinct and placed without clashes.
A singleton AP that runs one period is the tightest constraint in the building. It should be placed first and protected, with everything else built around it.
Before it solves, it should flag the impossible: a course with more requests than seats, a teacher needed in two rooms at once, a request no section can satisfy.
Move a section and have student, teacher and room conflicts checked before you commit — master schedules always need a human pass.
Requests shift through the summer. Rebuild sections and the master schedule in minutes, compare versions, and publish the cleanest.
| What high school scheduling needs | By hand | Generic | Schedual |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sections from course requests | ✕ spreadsheet | ~ manual counts | ✓ built-in |
| Regular / Honors / AP levels | ~ by you | ~ custom rules | ✓ handled |
| Singleton AP placement | ✕ easy to miss | ~ partial | ✓ protected |
| Conflict validation | ✕ after the fact | ~ partial | ✓ live |
| Time to a master schedule | weeks | hours | seconds |
Schedual runs a constraint-satisfaction solver — the same class of engine used in industrial logistics — against your bell schedule, staff, rooms and course requests. You don’t set section counts; it works them out, fitting every student’s required courses and electives into a day with no clashes and sections within room capacity.
A full high school solves in seconds on a dedicated solver, so your browser never blocks. When requests change over the summer, regenerate the master schedule and compare versions before you publish.
The fastest way to judge it is a short demo where we generate a version of your master schedule live, from your real course requests.
