Teaching Room Bookings 2026/27
Policy, Roles and Responsibilities, and Procedures
Updated: February 2026
1. Introduction
The amalgamation of all Central and College/School teaching spaces and their use into a single data source allows undergraduate and postgraduate taught students to enrol on their classes, view complete timetables, including locations and directions, online and allows the University to collect data on space utilisation which will be used to improve space utilisation and planning.
This document sets out the University's policy and procedures in respect of the booking of Central Teaching Space (CTS) and the construction and production of the University's teaching and examination timetable. The policy requires Schools to enact their responsibilities with respect to the management of local space used for teaching and examinations.
This policy should be read in conjunction with the Timetable and Room Allocation Programme of Activity issued each year, and appropriate training and support materials for relevant roles. These will be published on the Estates Directorate Space Management and Timetabling website.
In addition, it should be read in conjunction with the Teaching Planning Principles 2026-27, approved by the Learning and Teaching Policy Group.
2. Policy Objectives
The policy for the management of teaching space is aligned to the University’s Space Management Policy and the objectives of the University Strategy and Estates Strategic Implementation Plan in supporting both the optimum utilisation of teaching space and enhancing the student experience.
The objectives of the policy are:
- To support staff, at all levels, who contribute to the creation and production of the University's teaching timetable.
- To provide personalised timetables and room booking information for students and staff that is up to date and accurate.
- To record all timetabled teaching and learning activities and space on one timetable.
- To provide a unified approach to timetabling and room booking across the University using a single system.
- To enhance the student experience and support the delivery of a high-quality learning and teaching environment within available resources.
- To ensure the delivery of a standard level of facilities and support across all Colleges.
- To ensure that students are taught in the most appropriate teaching accommodation.
- To optimise the utilisation and configuration of the University's learning space.
- To ensure the effective organisation and administration of blended delivery.
- To minimise student and staff travel across campus and to ensure that disabled students and staff are allowed sufficient time for travel between classes.
- To create a learning and working environment which fosters good relations, promotes respect for all people, and is free from discrimination and unfair treatment, in line with the University's commitment to promote equality in all its activities and its equality policies (available on the Equality and Diversity webpage).
- To plan timetables for new options, changing modes of delivery and developments in learning and teaching.
- To ensure continuous improvement in the timetabling process.
- To enable use of the University’s teaching spaces and facilities by external bodies for income-generation purposes, provided this is compatible with the University’s strategy and does not conflict with teaching and assessment activities.
3. Guidance on Use of Teaching Space
3.1 Definitions of Central and Locally (School) Managed Teaching Space
3.1.1 Centrally Managed Space
Central Space refers to all Teaching Rooms (Lecture Theatres, Seminar Rooms, etc.), Specialist Space (Laboratories, Clusters etc.) and Non-Teaching Rooms (Halls, Meeting and Conference Rooms) that are supported by the Estates Directorate and Information Services. These rooms are primarily bookable for teaching activities but may be used for teaching-related and non-teaching activities such as examinations, research seminars, meetings and commercial activities where these do not conflict with the requirements for learning and teaching.
3.1.2 Locally (School) Managed Teaching Space
Locally managed teaching space is primarily used for the teaching activities of the managing School.
Schools will be encouraged to review retained Teaching Rooms and their utilisation data regularly, and to consider where it may be appropriate to transfer space to central management for University-wide use. Where Schools opt to retain local control of teaching space they will be expected to accept and commit to the obligations of effectively managing this space, including:
- responsibility for the condition and functional suitability of the space;
- notifying and consulting with specialist providers, such as the Estates Directorate and Information Services regarding maintenance, improvements and upgrades;
- ensuring that accessibility is taken into account when maintaining and upgrading facilities, as necessary seeking advice from the Estates Directorate, Information Services, the Equality and Diversity Unit and the Disability Service.
Where locally managed space is unused by a School in-year it should be available to be booked for other/wider University business, including use as student study space.
It is recognised that all general teaching space should, over time, be moved to central management in order to ensure common standards in teaching spaces, consistency of experience for staff and students, and to optimise the use of space as a strategic asset supporting the University’s ambition for growth.
3.2 Facilities and Support Services for Central Teaching Space (CTS)
3.2.1 The Estates Directorate maintains quality standards and the fabric in CTS.
3.2.2 The SMTT advise on CTS facilities and manage requests for space use.
3.2.3 Information Services manage the AV-IT equipment in CTS and may be able to provide additional equipment on request. (Requests are subject to availability in the spaces and meeting the annual timetable process planning deadlines.)
3.2.4 Facilities Services (part of the Estates Directorate) are responsible for the routine maintenance of CTS.
3.3 Hire of Accommodation Charges
3.3.1 During core teaching hours, Schools do not normally incur charges for the use of centrally managed space for events, including social events, which are directly related to teaching and research. Most of the facilities and services offered by Information Services are also free of charge for teaching and research purposes during core hours, but there may be charges for consumables. A further definition of non-chargeable events is included at Appendix C.
3.3.2 Other events hosted by Schools in centrally managed space will incur hire of accommodation charges – further details can be found in the Non-Teaching Bookings Policy 2026/27.
3.3.3 There will be no exemption from additional costs incurred in respect of any event for operational support, heating or cleaning costs other than where the space is allocated for core teaching activity.
3.4 External Bookings
3.4.1 The Events and Conferences Team (E&C) is responsible for hiring out Central Teaching Space to external clients.
3.4.2 External bookings are defined as those made by external organisations without reference to any College, School or Service OR those made by a College, School or Service on behalf of an external organisation and charged via a University account.
3.4.3 The use of University rooms and facilities by external bodies must be compatible with the University’s strategic aims and values, and its policies and procedures.
3.4.5 Bookings of CTS that are requested by external organisations are chargeable and must be booked through Events and Conferences who will communicate with University service providers, or any appropriately appointed supplier, if support is required.
3.4.6 The University’s teaching, examination and ceremonial requirements for rooms and facilities take priority over any external persons, groups or organisations wishing to use the rooms or support services (including AV-IT).
No changes should be made to the University's teaching timetable to accommodate external use, unless authorised by the Chief Operating Officer (Secretary of Court). In particular, examination timetabling is complicated by a limited amount of examination accommodation, by a limited number of examination timetable slots, and by a variation in examination durations. The University has, therefore, undertaken to ensure an adequate supply of examination accommodation by making all suitable spaces (central and local) available in all examination periods.
4. Teaching and Examination Times
4.1 Teaching Weeks
The University's Session Dates, including the teaching semester, are set by Academic Policy & Governance. When planning timetabling teaching activity, the SMTT Timetabling Weeks Calendar 2026-27 should be used.
4.2 Teaching Hours
4.2.1 Core teaching hours and normal opening hours for University buildings are 08:30 to 18:00 Mondays to Fridays. All classes should commence five minutes after the hour and finish at least five minutes before the hour to allow for the necessary changeover.
4.2.2 Exceptionally, teaching events in CTS may be scheduled outside core teaching hours provided specific advance agreement has been given by the SMTT. In such instances, teaching after 18:00 is concentrated as far as possible in 'Open or Supported Buildings' in order to minimize operational support requirements and utility consumption. Open and Supported Buildings for 2026/27 are:
42 Bute Gardens which is open until 21:30 from Monday - Friday all year (except for the Christmas vacation)
Adam Smith Building which is open until 20:00 from Monday - Friday all year (except for the Christmas vacation)
Boyd Orr Building which is open until 21:30 from Monday - Friday all year (except for the Christmas vacation)
James McCune Smith Building which is open from 06:00 until 23:00 Monday - Sunday all year (except for the Christmas vacation)
St Andrew's Building which is open until 21:30 from Monday - Friday all year (except for the Christmas vacation)
4.2.3 The University is committed to encouraging participation in sport and exercise activities, therefore, in accordance with the policy agreed by Academic Policy & Governance, Wednesday afternoons should be kept free of classes to permit students to engage in recreational activities and classes should not normally be scheduled after 12:00 on Wednesdays. See Wednesday Afternoon Sporting Activities for further information.
4.2.4 The University has developed a Religion and Belief Policy to support staff and students who follow a particular faith. Advice for staff and students on religious observance is available in the Equality and Diversity Policy, Appendix H.
4.3 Examination Times
4.3.1 Teaching and examination periods are clearly separated in the University’s academic year so that there are normally no undergraduate degree examinations during teaching periods and no timetabled classes such as lectures, tutorials, or laboratories during examination periods.
4.3.2 Further information on the University’s Exam policies and procedures can be found on the Academic Policy & Governance’s Assessment webpage.

6. Procedures and Principles
6.1 Procedures
6.1.1 All teaching events must be entered into CMIS, regardless of whether they take place in CTS, locally managed or external rooms. This is necessary to support student enrolment, enable complete timetables to be provided to students and staff and ensure that clashes are avoided.
6.1.2 Every effort should be made to avoid potential clashes between single activities on compulsory courses; between compulsory and elective courses; and between elective courses within any programme of study. The parent School is responsible for working with the Timetabling Partner in the SMTT to ensure that any such clashes are resolved by moving one or both activities. Any clashes that cannot be resolved should be referred to the appropriate Head(s) of School and, in the event that they are unable to agree a resolution, they should be referred to the appropriate Dean(s) (Learning and Teaching). It should be noted that this work requires to be planned at the outset and verified by Schools early in the annual process, prior to the end of April deadline.
6.1.3 Course clashes are not possible at the time that students enrol on a class in MyCampus, i.e., the system will not allow students to enrol on clashing activities. If an Advisor chooses to use the override option in the student records system, the Advisor is responsible for checking the consequences of their actions. School Points of Contact should not request timetable changes that will create a clash.
6.1.4 Process maps, training documents and the annual timetable programme of activity are available from Space Management and Timetabling as separate documents.
6.2 Principles and Priorities for Allocating Central Space
The following principles and priorities are used in room allocation. Please note that although this is a numbered section, event requests contain a number of factors that cumulatively affect the availability and best-fit allocation.
6.2.1 Teaching activities take precedence over non-teaching activities, with the exception of bookings for examinations and degree ceremonies made prior to the deadline for returning academic event requirements to the SMTT.
6.2.2 Larger classes take precedence over smaller classes (for capacity fit into a space). Classes will always be allocated a room with a capacity greater than or equal to the stated class size. Class sizes must be at least 80% of the room capacity.
6.2.3 As the range of teaching spaces available becomes more diverse and in line with evolving pedagogy, the match between learning activity and type of space allocated will be prioritised.
6.2.4 Full semester bookings normally take precedence over single week or ad hoc bookings. Where the week patterns are the same, activities which have a shorter duration take precedence over longer duration activities.
However, note that staff must book only actual teaching weeks, i.e., ensure that ‘reading weeks’ or other non-teaching times are planned and correctly reflected, by the required planning deadline.
6.2.5 Bookings for the main University Open Day events are allocated as part of the timetable construction process. Open Day bookings for all other times are processed after all teaching bookings have been finalised.
6.2.6 Activities requiring specialist facilities have priority access to specialist teaching spaces.
6.2.7 Access for students and staff with a disability is a priority and will be accommodated wherever possible. This information should be included in the initial planning by the required deadline each year. Enrolments by a student with a disability may give rise to a late class timetable change request but every effort must be made to capture this requirement at an early stage.
6.2.8 Where a suitable room cannot be found, an appropriate room at an alternative time may be proposed.
6.2.9 In the event that the time of the activity is fixed, it is the responsibility of the School either to make alternative arrangements or to check the availability of rooms managed by the SMTT or other Schools.
6.2.10 In the first instance, conflicts will be resolved by the SMTT and the parties concerned. Conflicts which cannot be resolved by the SMTT will be referred to Head(s) of School. If the Head(s) of School are unable to agree a resolution, the matter will be referred to the appropriate Dean(s) (Learning and Teaching).
6.2.11 Student numbers must not exceed the published seating capacity limits.*
These principles do not apply to last minute non-teaching bookings or to School-managed teaching space with the exception of * above, which applies to all teaching space and in all cases.
