Substitute Cover Without the Morning Scramble

When leave is approved or someone calls in sick, the gap is visible immediately — and the schedule that fills it is drafted around lessons, term dates, and UAE Labour Law rest rules.

The 7 AM cover problem, solved before 7 AM

Every school leader knows the morning scramble: a teacher calls in sick, and someone spends the first hour of the day working out who can cover period two. CampusTrack connects the pieces that scramble depends on — approved leave and absence flow straight into the schedule, uncovered slots surface to supervisors immediately, and staff schedules are drafted around the academic calendar with working-hour and rest rules checked automatically. The scramble becomes a notification with a suggested answer.

AI shift wizard drafting a school week schedule with breaks and UAE Labour Law checks

Illustrative interface — describe the schedule in plain English; AI drafts the weekly grid with breaks and the UAE Labour Law check built in.

Coverage gaps surface immediately

Approved leave and no-shows create visible uncovered slots for supervisors — before the school day starts, not after period one.

AI-drafted schedules

Describe the week in plain English; the AI Assistant drafts the schedule grid with breaks and UAE-aware defaults. HR confirms before staff see anything.

Built around the school year

Term dates, exam weeks, holidays, and school events drive the schedule — cover planning follows the academic calendar, not a generic work week.

Teaching and non-teaching patterns

Morning teaching blocks, split admin shifts, transport runs, and security rotations — different staff groups run different patterns on the same campus.

UAE Labour Law checks

Working-hour limits and rest rules are checked on every schedule, so a cover assignment never quietly pushes someone over the line.

Connected to attendance and leave

Schedules, check-ins, and leave live in one system — actual-vs-scheduled reporting comes free, with no spreadsheet reconciliation.

Frequently asked questions

Which plan includes shift and cover planning?
Shift assignment with the UAE holidays calendar is included free on Starter. Growth adds the AI Assistant for drafting schedules in plain English, plus advanced reports on actual-vs-scheduled hours.
Does CampusTrack assign substitutes automatically?
It surfaces the gap and the available staff immediately, and the AI can draft a cover schedule — but a manager always confirms the assignment. AI does the prep; school leaders still decide.
Can different campuses run different schedules?
Yes — schedules, calendars, and shift patterns are configured per campus, so a nursery, a school, and a university campus in the same group each run their own day.
Is this a student timetabling system?
No. CampusTrack schedules staff — teaching and non-teaching. It does not build student timetables; it makes sure the staff side of the timetable is covered.
