What made this hard, and how it was solved
Every school has one constraint that decides the whole week. Here is this school's.
The hard part
Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Informatics and Geography practicals all need their own room, and both grades want them — four Science sections between Classes XI and XII competing for the same three science labs. A practical is also useless as two periods either side of lunch: it has to be one uninterrupted double.
How it was solved
Every practical books its own laboratory, so a Class XII Physics practical and a Class XI Chemistry practical run at the same hour without ever meeting. Each stream is modelled as its own class, which is what lets three different subjects legitimately occupy the same period across the school — that is what an elective band is. And every practical is placed as a true double: two consecutive periods inside the same run, never split by the break or by lunch.
The actual timetable
Not a screenshot — the real grid, with the same four views the planner gives you. Pick a view, then a class, day, teacher or room.
One class, the whole week — the sheet that goes on the classroom wall.
