How to set up long breaks

Last updated: Jun 25, 2025

Scenario: Our third break is the lunch break and it’s longer than the others

Imagine a school day with 5 periods:

Initially, your school periods might look like this:

12345
08:00 - 08:5009:00 - 09:5010:00 - 10:5011:00 - 11:5012:00 - 12:50

To add a longer break after the third period (for example, for lunch), you can adjust the start times of the 4th and 5th periods.

After making the change, the schedule might look like this:

12345
08:00 - 08:5009:00 - 09:5010:00 - 10:5011:20 - 12:1012:20 - 13:10

This way, there's now a 30-minute lunch break after the third period.
