• It includes the time table of different wings and groups.
• This time-table gives the total picture of the working of the school.
Class Time- Table:
• This type of time -table pertains to a particular class or
section.
• This indicates daily programme of work of the particular
class .
• It is generally kept in the classroom so that students of the
class, teacher incharge and the principal know the
programme of the class.
• Each class works according to its own class time- table.
Time- table for games and other activities:
• Games and cocurricular activities are considered integral part of school
programme.
• For their proper organisation there must be separate time-table to specify the
time, duration, place etc .of these activities.
Time- table for home work:
• Home work should be so planned that it does not over burden the pupils. For
this, homework time -table is prepared.
• Different subject teachers teaching a particular class sit together towards the
week end and plan next weeks homework to be given to that class.
Teachers time –table:
• This type of time -table is framed for the convenience of
teachers and the principal.
• Principal comes to know where and when a particular
teacher is busy. He also comes to know when a teachers is
free.
• Teachers also consult this time- table so that they attend to

particular time.
• This includes the arrangements of all subjects to be taught
in the school.
Principles of good Time –Table

Principle of variety:
• The best time -table is one in which students get time to change their seats and
keep their body in the comfortable position.
• So it is essential that they do not sit at one place continuously for a longer
duration ,as they study a particular subject.
• It should be born in mind that the difficult and easy subjects are taught
alternatively.
• If a subject is to be taught for 2 or 3 periods in the week, these periods should not
be fixed continuously towards the week end.
Principle of flexibility:
• The time -table should be flexible enough that temporary changes could be affected by the
head of the institutions as and when it becomes absolutely necessary.
Principle of play and a creation:
• The students should not be kept busy in studies all day long .After serious work, there
should be periods of play and recreation .
• Such periods are considered very important as the students receive real education through
play and recreation
• So co -curricular activities should also be included in the construction of regular time- table.
Type of school:
• Time -table is an important means of organising school work efficiently.
• For example, the time -table of a public school will be different from that of an
ordinary secondary school.
• Time -table of a single shift school will be different from the one in a double shift
school .
Availability of time:
• While framing the time –table, total working time available should be kept in mind
• Time for academic subjects activities and other programmes have to be kept in mind
• Some subjects like English and Mathematics require more time than other subjects.
Conclusion
Time- tables are an integral part of academic
life ,teaching discipline, time management and task
completion .Implementing a robust school
management system can simplify the process, enhance
coordination, and benefit both students and teachers.
