Parent's Booking separate time slots

'Available for booking' wording to always be visible
Currently, when a parent uses a desktop or laptop to book a Parents' Evening slot, unavailable slots are clearly marked, but available slots appear as blank grey boxes without the words 'Available for booking' unless hovered over.
To improve accessibility and usability, the wording should always be visible, rather than relying on hover effects.
A more intuitive approach would be to change the background colour when selecting a slot, making it clearer which options are available and which are being chosen.
This adjustment would enhance the booking experience, ensuring parents can easily identify available slots at a glance.

Option to Set a Universal Break Time for Teachers
In the Parents’ Evening Booking add-on, it would be beneficial to have an option to set a specific break time for all teachers at once, rather than manually adding breaks for each teacher.
This would streamline the process when all teachers take a break at the same time, saving time and effort.
However, it’s still useful to retain the ability to manually add breaks for teachers who require different or multiple break times.

Parents Evening Booking - confirmation to be sent to booking parent only
It would greatly enhance the user experience if, upon booking a slot, parents immediately received a confirmation email. This email should serve to reassure them that their booking has been successfully made, while also providing details such as the date and time of the booking.
This measure would not only confirm the reservation to the parent but also sets the expectation that they should receive an email upon successfully saving their booking. Implementing this feature can effectively mitigate potential issues where a parent reserves a slot but overlooks the step of saving the booking to confirm it.

Parents Evening - ability to see parent view
When setting up a parents evening event, it would be helpful for the school to be able to see the parent's view of the event/have a 'test' parent account so that they can check everything from a parent perspective before making the event live.

Parents Evening Booking: 'BOOK THIS SLOT' text
Schools have mentioned that when parents log in and navigate to this section to book slots, currently the text 'BOOK THIS SLOT' is only visible upon hovering the cursor over it, which is feasible only on desktops.
However, the majority of parents access the website using mobile devices, where hovering is not possible due to the absence of a cursor. Consequently, they are unable to see this important wording.
It would be beneficial to ensure that the text is always visible on both desktop and mobile interfaces for accessibility reasons.

Auto Fill Slots on Parents' Evening Booking Tool
It would be great if parents could click a button to automatically populate their slots for a parents evening. I've seen other systems that have this functionality and would save parents time. To do this we would probably need to give them a way of selecting the teachers they are interested in seeing and selecting a start time. The system would then try and select slots for them, minimising the amount of time they are at the evening.
