Ah,  I still don't understand, as I have only one group of year 12 students, who all have to to Mathematics and all have to Russian.  They are on different lines and the same group of students divides differently for each line (Maths and Russian).  I do not have a 12A and 12B, just a 12.  Language splits into 7-8 lines, Mathematics into 3 groups, Science into 4 groups.  I have been using the groups to do this now.  So when they do mathematics, everyone does mathematics, when they do Russian, everyone does Russian.  The Rule works, so not a problem.  I just do not understand your thinking in setting up the timetable.   So my fault, not yours.  Small school, without need of rotating line management.

Thanks

Thanks Liviu, 
    I will end up adding a constraint that stops activities for a year sharing a time slot.  I have the students in groups already, which is why I am confused that the Science Group and Math Group, both groups of Seniors (the same group of students) was allocating the same group of students to two subjects at the same time.  I still don;t understand how that is normal.  But the constraint fixes the issue.  Thanks.

Hi,
  I am new to using FET, and I am a little confused as to why the program is generating timetables for a student year, but is allocating the same period to different subjects.  e.g.
https://docs.google.com/drawings/d/1frfdeIvGX1Yt2oMB8LsUhuzu-MxPHj-Egy1XKNLQNlI/edit?usp=sharing   

In this case Foreign Language and Mathematics for the same students at the same time?   

I have attached the settings file for this to the post.

Thanks,

Craig
