Timetable import

Import your timetable without typing every lesson.

If your school timetable is saved as a calendar file, PDF, photo, or screenshot, Made to Teach can turn it into a draft. You check everything before it is added.

  • About 3 minutes
  • Calendar, PDF, or image
  • Review before saving

Choose the easiest route

From the app to your finished timetable

Keep Made to Teach nearby. You will start and finish in the app, with the upload handled in a browser on the device that has your timetable.

  1. Step 1 In Made to Teach

    Start the import and generate a code

    Open Classes, choose Import timetable, then select Import using our website. Tap Use our website and generate a one-time code.

    Keep this screen open. The code expires for your security, but you can generate a new one at any time.
    In the app: choose the website option and generate a temporary code.
  2. Step 2 In your browser

    Enter the code in your browser

    On the phone, tablet, or computer that has your timetable, open import.madetoteach.com.au in a browser and enter the eight-character code shown in the app. This connects that browser upload to the right Made to Teach import.

    In the browser: enter the same code and connect the upload.
  3. Step 3 In your browser

    Choose and upload your timetable

    Choose the .ics export or PDF you saved from your school timetable system, then upload it. Made to Teach will prepare a draft without changing your current schedule.

    Nothing has been added to your Made to Teach schedule yet.
    In the browser: choose and upload your .ics export or PDF.
  4. Step 4 Back in Made to Teach

    Review the draft in the app

    Return to Made to Teach and open the waiting import. Check the class names, rooms, days, and times. Edit or remove anything that does not look right, then choose Add timetable to schedule.

    Nothing is added to your schedule until you confirm this final step.
    Back in the app: check every class before adding the timetable.

Before you start

A clean file gives you a cleaner draft

Use a timetable-only file

Export just your teaching timetable where possible, rather than your full personal calendar.

Calendar files are the most reliable

A repeating calendar file (.ics) works best. Weekly and fortnightly PDFs and clear timetable images are also supported.

Leave private details out

Your timetable does not need student names, wellbeing notes, behaviour information, or personal events. Read the privacy details.

Using a PDF or image? Check that the full grid, day labels, and clock times are readable. If the preview is not right, correct it in the app or try a calendar file instead.

If something looks wrong

You can fix it before anything is added

The code has expired

Return to timetable import in the app and generate a fresh code, then enter the new code in your browser.

The preview includes events I do not want

Do not confirm it. Export a timetable-only calendar if your school system allows it, then start a new import with that file.

The class names, days, or times are wrong

Edit or remove incorrect items in the app. If many items are wrong, upload a cleaner export or try a calendar file instead of a PDF.

I cannot find a suitable file

Look for an export or download option in your school timetable or calendar system. Ask your school IT team for a calendar (.ics) export or a weekly timetable PDF if you need help.

Ready when you are

Have your one-time code?

Enter it in this browser, upload your timetable, then return to the app to review the draft.
