Substitution / Replacement

A substitution is the assignment of another teacher to a lesson whose regular teacher is absent.

Single-lesson substitution

For a specific lesson, the administrator opens the absence's substitution management panel and uses Assign a substitute. This assignment applies only to the chosen lesson and takes precedence over the long-absence rules.

Substitution rule

For a long absence, the administrator creates one or more rules with Assign a substitute. A rule can specify:

• the substitute;
• validity dates;
• time slots;
• subjects;
• classes;
• a comment.

The rules apply in the order displayed. If no rule covers a lesson, it remains affected by the regular teacher's absence.

Displaying substitutions

On the timetable, the substituted teacher remains visible as the absent regular teacher and the substitute appears on the lesson. The details of the absence reason and comment depend on viewing rights.
