Unit planning is at the core of teaching and learning, allowing educators to design and organize an effective delivery of the curriculum. In Toddle, unit planning happens directly within the Course plan, giving teachers a central place to create, manage, and review all units linked to their classes.
In this article, you will learn how to:
Navigate to unit planning
To begin:
Go to Class → Course plan
From this page, you can open and edit existing units, explore their planners, or create new ones.
Note: Only staff members with course editor access can create or edit units within the Course plan. Other staff members, when added to units, will have view-only access.
View and organize units
The ‘Course plan’ provides flexible ways to view, organise, and search your units — helping you plan effectively, track curriculum coverage, and access the right information quickly.
Viewing options
The Course plan offers different ways to view your units. You can toggle between views using the options at the top of the page: Flow, Card, Timeline, and Table.
Note: Your selected view will be retained automatically each time you return to the Course plan, so you can continue working in your preferred layout.
1. Flow view
View all your units along with linked learning experiences, assessments, and resources. This structured layout helps you visualize how learning progresses across the course. You can expand or collapse folders to view the contents of each unit in detail.
Organize your view using the filter and display settings at the top-right corner:

Search units
You can easily find any unit using the search bar at the top of the Course plan.
Type the unit title or subject name, and all matching results will appear instantly below. This helps you quickly locate units without scrolling through the entire list.
