Apply a theme week in one click
Ready-made week templates — from topic week to project week, residential, fitness week or PBL. Pick year groups, pick a date, click Apply — the entire week is rebuilt automatically. This kind of intensive sequencing is backed by the the classic PBL framework (8 building blocks) and by Hattie's meta-analyses showing that immersive topic work raises time on task and depth of processing.
Fra skabelon til færdig uge — uden manuel ompuslen.
5 starter templates
Topic, project, residential, fitness and PBL — all with sensible defaults.
The week-template function
The system that replaces the week's lessons with the template's — rollback on failure.
Year-group filter
Min_grade/max_grade per template. The lower-school fitness week doesn't touch upper years.
PBL template
Apply_pbl_week_template ties the week to a specific PBL course and its wall.
Per-apply override
The timetabler can tweak the template before applying — without changing the original.
Audit & rollback
Every application is logged. Undo the week and the original schedule returns.
In the classroom
Headteacher
Sets fitness week for years 1-7 without touching upper school.
Teacher team
Builds a topic-week template once — reuses it for years.
Timetabler
No more rebuilding the timetable four times a year by hand.
For school leadership and for the teacher team
Theme weeks are a strategic lever, not an ad hoc move. Templates live independently of any single school year, so you can document for governors and the local authority which pedagogical rhythms shape your annual plan — topic, project, residential, fitness or PBL.
- Templates link into the Goal-loop and Quality programme
- PBL weeks feed data directly into Study 17 reporting
- Audit per apply — who started, who rolled back
The team builds its own template once: which subjects contribute, where blocks sit, which PBL deliverable lands in the week. Next year the template is reapplied in two clicks — without reinventing the plan or coordinating in Doodle.
- Custom templates per year-group team — subjects, blocks, deliverables
- PBL coordinator and learning circles auto-link
- Per-apply tweaks don't change the original
Research base
Theme weeks build on research into intensive learning sequences, project-based learning and the effect of learning rhythms on pupil engagement.
