Classroom seating charts for teachers

Seat Maker helps teachers move students quickly while keeping accommodations, classroom groups, and substitute-ready exports clear.

Why it helps

  • Create desk groups, pods, or table-based classroom layouts.
  • Lock important placements before testing a new arrangement.
  • Export seating charts for substitutes, proctors, and support staff.

Seat Maker workflow

  1. Step 1Add or paste student names.
  2. Step 2Create tables or pods that match the room.
  3. Step 3Lock accommodations and front-row placements.
  4. Step 4Shuffle flexible students and export the final chart.

What to check before you finalize

  • Keep accommodation details private while preserving the placement each student needs. A shared chart rarely needs the reason behind a seat.
  • Check walkways, teacher sightlines, device access, and group-work goals whenever desks or pods move during the term.
  • Date substitute and proctor exports so staff can recognize the current room arrangement instead of using an older class plan.

Keep classroom seating flexible without losing the room map.
