Shared team task board for school departments

Email threads aren't a task board. Spreadsheets aren't either. Teacher Task Manager gives school departments and working groups a proper shared task board — assign tasks to staff, track completion and communicate in real time, all in one place.

Teams are available on the Pro plan · £2.99/month or £26.99/year

👥 Create multiple teams 📋 Assign tasks to individuals 💬 Real-time team chat 📅 Shared team calendar 🔒 Role-based permissions

Built for the people who coordinate school workload

Whether you lead a department, a year group, or a whole-school working party — Teams gives you the visibility and coordination tools you need.

👔 SLT & Senior Staff
Create working parties and school-wide task boards with clear ownership and deadlines, visible to all members.
🤝 Working Groups
Temporary teams for specific projects — curriculum planning, Ofsted prep, ECF cohorts — with their own task board and chat channel.

What school teams get

Everything a department or working group needs — none of the corporate project management noise.

📋
Shared task board

Every team has its own task board. Add tasks, assign them to team members, set deadlines and track status from To Do through to Complete.

💬
Real-time team chat

A dedicated chat channel for every team — threaded conversations, file sharing and direct messages. No more department WhatsApp groups.

📅
Team calendar

A shared calendar for team events, deadlines and milestones — visible to all team members and synced with the school calendar.

🔔
Task assignment notifications

Team members receive a push notification when a task is assigned to them, with a reminder as the deadline approaches.

🔒
Role-based permissions

Team owners can assign tasks and manage membership. Team members can view and update tasks assigned to them. Clear, simple permissions that work for schools.

🤖
AI team overview

Team leads can ask the AI assistant for a summary of team workload, overdue tasks or upcoming deadlines across the whole department.
