This app just saved me so much time. Thank you!
I teach the same set of students in various classrooms throughout the week. The beauty of the Seating Chart Maker for me lies in its ability to utilize the same student list to form multiple seating arrangements for different rooms.
Effortless plan generator
Set up classroom layout, add students, and create random school seating charts in minutes.
Design your room layout using our intuitive floor plan generator. Create the layout of your classroom or select a ready-made template. Pick chair and desk styles. Rotate and place them freely with familiar features like drag-and-drop, automatic snap guide, and copy-and-paste.
Seating Chart Maker lets you quickly populate your roster by copying and pasting names from any application or text file, importing data from spreadsheets and CSV files, and optionally adding student photos.
In this phase, you can easily set up groups of students that should be, for example, kept separated, placed together, or seated at the front of the classroom in a randomly generated chart.
Let the seating chart generator randomize your seating plan, or build one manually by dragging and dropping student names. Print or share via a link. You can also show a seating chart directly from the app in full-screen mode.
Edit existing seating plans or create new ones with the same roster and room.

Use the wheel of names to pick a random student from your roster. Add excitement, make unbiased decisions, or play games.
Strategic seating
A classroom seating chart, or a seating plan, is a blueprint for setting up seats and students in a certain space—most often in classrooms.
Its main task is to manage space well, ensuring each student has their spot, which helps keep things orderly and boosts learning. Plus, it makes figuring out who's who a breeze.
Crafting a seating chart is all about making things work smoothly. In places like schools, it helps get students seated quickly and neatly, speeds up roll calls, and cuts down on the usual classroom chaos.
Keeping the above points in mind will help you create a seating chart that's not just about filling seats but also about enhancing the overall educational experience. Let's set up your students in the best way possible!
