In this paper we introduce a new algorithm for secondary school timetabling, inspired by the classical bipartite graph edge colouring algorithm for basic class–teacher timetabling. We give practical methods for generating large sets of meetings that can be timetabled to run simultaneously, and for building actual timetables based on these sets. We report promising empirical results for one real-world instance of the problem.
