Good Game but

[Trashley]

gets way to complicated fast

What do you have problems with?

Usually it should be a slow and gradual raise in difficulty, if you don't sign too many students in from everywhere (like focus on 1-2 offices early on, preferably students with balanced needs to prevent them from needing special classrooms).

Also tackle problems as they appear and don't do stuff before it is necessary, especially the special classrooms (including the sports stuff like a tennis court). That will also help you with spending money in times of need, instead of wasting you money on something, that doesn't get used anyway.

When you go to schedule lessons sometimes it says locked for certain subjects im confused if i'm forced to quickly research the education or they will fail or not.

as for glasses passing into the grade 2 section do i have to make another class room for grade 1 is it like year year 2 class or can i just have 1 big classroom.

apologies my questions are more confusing than the game its hard for me to kinda explain the issues im having i may just need to learn abit more but it feels like im being rushed ingame when by the sounds of it i can still take my time ?

The game gets a bit confusing if you're expanding too fast. I.e. I ran into some problems when students wanted food but I hadn't researched any rooms for it. Or after I built too many rooms too quickly and ran out of management-capabilities. I think it's best to take it slow with expanding the school, especially in the beginning.

To answer your questions (in case you haven't found out already):
- when lessons in the schedule are locked you either have to research them, or you don't have a necessary free room, i.e. biology-lab (this becomes relevant later when you have many classes with similar schedules). If it's due to the room it'll be shown in the schedule.
Luckily, you don't need to teach all lessons (at least for the kids from the beginner neighborhoods), so if you run into the problem but know the students will pass their test, you can pad the schedule with other activities until you can hold the lessons. You should be able to see which students pass the test when looking at the schedule (you also get a warning when some students are expected to fail)

- Each classroom is only used by one year. If it was occupied by a year 1 class, it will be used by the same students for their year 2 class - you can't put new year 1 students into the same room, even if you have empty seats. So if you want to have a continuous "flow" of students, you need to build a new class each year (or rather week) until you have three. Also classrooms have a limit of students that can be taught (since the teacher's podium can only overlook so many desks), so at some point you'll need multiple classrooms per year.
