Our verdict on Griddle

Griddle is a cloud-based school scheduling platform from Compass Education for schools managing timetables, curriculum structures, course selections, class lists, daily organisation, and exams. It is particularly suited to multi-campus schools that need to coordinate shared staff and spaces while accommodating different period structures. Student, teacher, room, and campus views support scheduling across the main groups involved in school operations.

Its strongest area is timetable depth. Griddle can automatically generate timetables and use AI-assisted line generation, while still allowing manual intervention when planners need to adjust the result. Conflict reporting covers teachers and rooms, and the published feature set also includes teacher and room constraints, student group scheduling, course selection, class-list management, and exams with special considerations. That breadth makes it a fit for schools whose scheduling needs extend beyond a basic weekly timetable.

Griddle also connects with Compass to synchronise events and related information, making it a natural choice for schools already working within that ecosystem. Multi-campus scheduling with shared resources is a clear advantage for complex school structures, while multiple period structures can be managed in one timetable. Schools seeking a browser-based platform focused on comprehensive timetable administration should shortlist Griddle. It is less suitable for teams that require a broader integration ecosystem or a platform beyond web access, and schools should expect human oversight alongside automated generation.
