PAL Central: Faculty Timetablers

An online hub of guidance and resources for our PAL Leaders and their Level 4 students.

Faculty admin

If you have any issues with the timetabling of your session (either one-off or recurring) you will need to contact your Faculty Timetabler.

Please note:

  • Timetablers are very busy so you will need to provide as much information in your initial email as possible (recommend creating an email signature stating your name, programme and which PAL group you run)
  • Issues with timetabling (e.g. scheduling) will need to be highlighted early, as there is a deadline for making changes to the timetable – this is typically within the first two weeks of each semester
  • A list of Faculty Timetablers and their contact details can be found below

Timetabling guidance

Moving/Cancelling a Session 

  • The student group and the PAL Leader should review and discuss scheduled PAL sessions for the year ahead at their first session in semester one. If necessary, the PAL Leader should liaise with the Timetabler regarding an alternative mutually convenient session – maintaining a consistent day and time throughout the year. 

  • Subsequent changes should only be requested in case of illness or emergency, which may include childcare commitments. 

  • A minimum of 2 working days’ notice is required to change a session. 

  • It is the responsibility of the PAL Leader to communicate changes to scheduled sessions to the student group, cc’ing PAL@bournemouth.ac.uk. 

  • Postponed sessions should be rearranged wherever possible. Requests to rearrange postponed sessions should be made to the Timetabler by the PAL Coordinator (PAL Placement Student), who should advise of a preferred week in which to rearrange the session. 

  • When rearranging sessions, Timetabling Principles (above) will be applied, unless the Timetabler is advised of a specific mutually convenient day and time – which would depend on room availability. 

  • PAL@bournemouth.ac.uk should be cc’d into all communications with the Timetabling team/the PAL Leader.
