Common questions
Random classroom seating chart questions.
How does the random seating chart generator work?
It shuffles student names in your browser, applies optional classroom seating rules, and places everyone into the rows and seats per row you choose. Generate again whenever you want a new arrangement.
Can I keep certain students apart or prioritize front seats?
Yes. Add front-row students by name, and list keep-apart pairs as Name, Name. The seating chart maker avoids horizontal and vertical neighbours and reports any rule the room layout cannot meet.
Can I print the classroom seating chart?
Yes. After you generate the seating plan, choose Print for a printable classroom chart or Copy to keep the assigned seats in your lesson notes.
Are student names uploaded?
No. The random seating plan is made directly in your browser. Your names are not sent to a server.
