We’re specialists in helping schools and multi-academy trusts with two of their most complex and time-consuming activities – curriculum reviews and timetable construction. Both exercises can eat up significant amounts of senior leadership time which is costly and assumes the skillset exists in house to deliver it in the first place.
With over 25 years’ experience in both areas, we’re able to provide ad-hoc and ongoing support to schools and trusts, relieving them of the obligation and allowing them to reinvest their time back into delivering a quality educational experience for their young people.
We understand the complexities of creating and structuring engaging secondary school curriculums that appeal to students and parents alike, whilst balancing costs, resources, and minimum teaching time expectations. Our holistic consultancy services ensures that we don’t just look at the curriculum or timetable construction in isolation as we understand that the two elements are interdependent. Therefore, all our timetable consultancy clients enjoy access to free of charge curriculum consultancy too.
From one off training, consultancy and timetable construction to ongoing relationships whereby we support schools and trusts with all of their timetabling requirements throughout the year, we offer flexible consultancy to meet our client’s needs. We can provide a comprehensive timetable construction service for schools using either 'Timetabler' or Nova T6. We’re also experienced in porting between the two as schools or trust introduce new MIS and require different skills.
Creating an engaging school curriculum that is broad and balanced, cost effective, attractive to pupils and parents alike and which delivers minimum teaching time allocation requirements for each subject is difficult to achieve.
Here at Woodson TCC, we’ve got more than 25 years’ experience working in secondary schools creating timetables and being part of the curriculum planning team; walking that fine line between deciding what we’d like to offer, what we need to offer and what we have the budget, resources and staffing to offer.
