Why do 110,000 teachers love Mega Seating Plan?

Mega Seating Plan is absolutely awesome.

My kids don't even argue about it, because they know with the random selected button, it's all in the hands of the gods of megaseatingplan.com

We even came up with a jingle for it, to the same tune as that famous UK advert 'funkypigeon.com'

I find Mega Seating Plan extremely useful. Thank you for making this available. I love that I can access from any device or computer without needing software. It is very user-friendly.

This is saving me so much time!

I love your site

Awesome site

I just discovered Mega Seating Plan and have been so pleased with how easy it is to use! I especially like that I can set up my classroom one time and then generate seating charts based on that set-up. I was also thrilled to find that I can easily swap students!

Thank you so much for this amazing platform to create seating plans. I am a fairly new teacher and I have found it so helpful!

Mega Seating Plan is really great!

Thank you for creating this incredible site! It makes my seating arrangements so much easier!

Really impressed with your website, has made seating plans so much easier! Thank you.

Just wanted to say thanks for this cool tool! It's just what I was looking for. I love this internet world where people do great things and then share them for free with others - especially when I'm sure you've got lots of other things to do.

I have been playing around for a while and think this will be such a big time saver next year! I especially love the fact you can choose the same class in different rooms as I am teaching in multiple rooms next year with different layouts. This is brilliant and you are surely a saint bringing this site to us free of charge!

Love your site and used it for a couple of months now

This is amazing! I really love it

Nice and easy to use

What do Platinum schools think?

"This is one of the best products we have ever bought. All staff have bought in, shared plans, used data and embraced everything this excellent product has to offer. The platinum plan is fantastic value and has saved us hours of time."

"Teachers love the ease of creating and sharing plans. Admin is a doddle. Recently we've had to use the contact trace feature, which meant we could promptly pull off the relevant seating plans and provide accurate information to Public Health England.

Support is unrivalled – one example: I used the online chat on a Sunday and Rob responded and corrected the issue instantly. Couldn't ask for a better service!"

"Staff have found this quick and easy to use. Serves the purpose for lesson observations as well as for tracing students due to covid-19."

"The service from Mega Seating Plan has been great so far. Colleagues are able to rapidly find and identify students and cover supervisors and supply staff are able to drop into their roles with absolute confidence about the expectations in the classroom.

Additionally, while dealing with the current Covid situation, we are able to rapidly identify where students have been and work out potential contacts; the ability to look back to previous versions of the same seating plan brings an additional layer of robustness to this."

"We joined Mega Seating Plan with the Platinum subscription this September and it has revolutionised many aspects of our lesson arrangements. It is quick and easy to design your classrooms and add you teaching groups.

One particular function which has proved very useful is the learn names function which enables you to learn the names of your students prior to meeting them! I would highly recommend."

"I know that the teachers in school have benefitted enormously from having software that links directly to SIMS and pulls across the students' data, class list and SEN details. This has saved them a great amount of time.

From a support perspective, I can't praise Rob highly enough. Any issues are always dealt with in a pleasant and timely manner and communication is excellent. I would highly recommend the product for teachers, and also higly recommend the company from a technical and support point of view."

"Mega Seating Plan represents great value for money compared to other providers on the market and Rob (owner and creator) is always eager to help resolve any issues or listen to feedback about feature requests. Staff pick up how the system works easily and this in turn reduces the administrative burden on IT staff.

The class tiles are configurable and it has helped make sure that teachers are aware of any special considerations such as SEN status for students in their class."

"Mega Seating Plan is really simple and intuitive to use; I rarely need to help staff with how to create a seating plan, and they are all impressed with how quickly they can create them.

We've asked all staff to use them for all their classes this year, due to the really helpful track and trace function, and even with a tight deadline no-one has had any issues. Help is very quick."

"We've been using the Platinum version of Mega Seating Plan for a couple of years now. It compares favourably cost-wise with its rivals - but does the job we need it to do!

The new Platinum features have been very helpful for the current Covid-19 planning and reporting requirements. I've also always found that when we've had queries the response time has been quick."

"Mega Seating Plan is one of the most popular initiatives with staff we have added over the past few years. It is user friendly and enables staff to make a standardised seating plan with all the student information within minutes.

Rob responds quickly to any queries or suggestions and is always willing to help. At the end of the summer we asked if the plans could be date stamped to help us and this was quickly added.

To be able to see all the seating plans has really helped with cover lessons and enabled us to very quickly contact trace pupils."
