Sick day?
Leave a short handover.
The gist of each lesson. A link to the slides. The few things your TRT needs to know.
Keep it to one clear page, then get back to resting.

Write the gist
A few lines for each part of the day. Use the lessons and routines your class already knows.
Link the slides
Paste the exact Plink or classroom resource link, and add the slide numbers if helpful. Your TRT opens the original.

Save your handover to your account. Reuse the timetable and update what has changed.

Plink resources remain on Plink and may require the TRT’s own authorised staff login. AusTeacher is independent of Plink and the SA Department for Education.
Made for the morning you didn’t plan
Less setup. A handover your TRT can scan.
Try it with your own timetable and resources. Tell us whether the covering teacher can pick it up and get started.
