One student, two subjects, one balance
If the same student comes for physics on Tuesday and maths on Friday, both days can sit in one weekly series, each with its own time. All their lessons and payments live on one card, and one top-up from the parent covers both days – the lessons are paid in order as they happen.
If the two subjects are priced differently, you can change the price of an individual lesson in the lesson form.
Autumn crunch: PAT and university applications
Students applying to Oxford for physics or engineering sit the Physics Aptitude Test in October, so September and October are suddenly busy. Add a second weekday for those weeks; once interviews are over, end the series for that extra day and the student goes back to their normal rhythm.
For A-level students, the second peak comes between Easter and the June papers. The same series simply grows a day for a few months.

Late evenings and long problem sessions
A-level problem sessions often run 90 minutes and finish at half past nine. Squool has a dark theme for the evening, a reminder before every lesson on your iPhone, and Apple Watch shows who's next without picking up the phone. Lesson lengths have presets for 45, 60, 90 and 120 minutes, plus ‘Other’.
Progress over a school year
Physics marks improve slowly, and parents' evening is when families start asking questions. A student's statistics show a month calendar with every lesson, the number of lessons, what was earned, due and lost, and how the month compares with the previous one. You see at once whether a student has kept up their weekly rhythm since September.
Private by design, free to try
Squool runs on iPhone, iPad and Mac and syncs through your own iCloud; the developer cannot see your students, your prices or your income. If your timetable is already in Google Calendar or Apple Calendar, you can import students and weekly lessons from there. Full access is free for 14 days, no card needed.
Questions and answers
Is there an app for physics tutors to schedule students and track payments?
Yes. Squool gives a single tutor a weekly timetable, a balance per student, missed and cancelled lessons and monthly income on iPhone, iPad, Mac and Apple Watch.
Can one student have physics and maths lessons on different days?
Yes. Put both weekdays in one weekly series, each with its own time; all payments go to the same balance.
Can I add extra sessions just for PAT season?
Yes. Add a weekday to the series for those weeks, then end that day's lessons when the test and interviews are over.
Does Squool have a dark mode for late-evening tutoring?
Yes. The dark theme works on iPhone, iPad and Mac.
Can the developer see my students' data?
No. Your data stays on your devices and in your own iCloud.
