The Problem
Our school policy limits students to a maximum of two summative assessments per day to protect student wellbeing and manage workload. While teachers are encouraged to check the assessment calendar before scheduling, overlaps (three or more assessments) still occur frequently.
Currently, Toddle does not indicate the order in which assessments were added to the calendar. This makes it difficult for leadership to determine which assessment was added last and should, therefore, be the one moved to a different date.
Proposed Solution
We request the addition of a Creation Timestamp for all summative tasks. Specifically:
Backend Tracking: Automatically record the exact date and time a summative task is published/assigned to the calendar.
Frontend Visibility: Display this timestamp within the Assessment Calendar view (perhaps in the hover-over details or the task sidebar).
User Benefit
Accountability: Provides a clear "first-come, first-served" record for scheduling.
Conflict Resolution: Allows coordinators and Grade Level Leads to quickly identify the "third" assessment added and request a reschedule from the correct faculty member.
Student Wellbeing: Ensures our 2-per-day limit is enforceable, directly reducing student stress and burnout.
