Definition of Timetable
A Timetable is the means by which teachers organize the teaching and learning activities in their
classroom. A timetable shows when subjects are being taught throughout the week. A normal
timetable consists of a time analysis which shows the number of lessons in each subject, the
length (in minutes) of each lesson and the totals for each subject and for the whole week. It also
shows the specific time of the day a particular lesson takes place and the starting and finishing
time of teaching each day. A timetable is essential for the smooth running of multigrade schools.
Examples of Timetable
Advantages of a Timetable
• A PREPARATION for what will going to happen next.
• Time management and manage instructional resources.
• Decrease work confusions.
• A well-designed timetable allows students to mentally prepare for what will come next,
which helps them learn more effectively. The students set their own speed based on the
amount of work that needs to be accomplished.
• A timetable allows you, the teacher, to keep track of your workload. As a result, you'll be
able to put your skills and abilities to better use.
• A timetable can also aid in the management of instructional resources such as the
chalkboard, learning corners, and classroom space.
Disadvantages of a Timetable
• The contact time you have available. Contact time is the amount of teaching time you
spend with your class.
• The subjects you wish to include in the timetable and the weight you give to each subject.
• Flexibility to be incorporated in your timetable. You must allow for changing
circumstances.
• The available resources, for example, space and facilities.
• The topics that you may integrate or combine.
• Subject sequencing. For example, you may do mathematics followed by art or
storytelling.
• Attitudes of your learners towards certain subjects and even the community’s attitudes
towards some subject areas such as sex education, politics and so forth.
• Availability of public utilities. This can affect your timetable. For example, a lack of
water may affect your home economics lessons.
• Duration of periods. You may want to use double or triple periods for special activities
like art and craft.
• Availability of knowledgeable persons with skills to offer. For example, you may have
members of your community teach sports, music, art and craft.
