2026 Teacher Planners

The Base Planner Difference

Moveable term tabs

No more making do with term tabs that don't align with your school's term dates. The Base Planner is designed to suit you.

Simply remove the term page and reinsert it where you need it.

Premium, durable & lighter than ever

With bleed-proof paper, a wipe-clean water-resistant cover, reinforced metal corners, a tough coil binding, and a strong elastic closure, this planner is made to last. We've also made this year's planner lighter and thinner.

Distraction-free weekly layout

No motivational quotes. No stickers. No fluff. Just clean, functional space to plan your weeks and organise your time.

Shaped by your feedback, our 2026 edition is even more streamlined.

Weekly meeting minutes

No more scrolling to the back of your planner or hunting through separate notebooks.

Keep all your meeting minutes organised with our weekly meeting minutes and notes.

Professional learning section

Plan your professional goals, log professional learning and take notes - all aligned to the AITSL standards.

Flexible planning

Use the yearly overview to map out your big picture, then plan each term your way.

Every term tab includes a full unlined page for brainstorming, mood boarding or layout planning, plus a structured weekly planner to break things down week by week.

Make it your own

Customise your Base Planner with premium accessories.

In our shop, you'll find matching pen loops, additional page packs and refill packs to suit your needs.

Two covers. Two vibes. Same great planner.

Designed by a high school teacher

Hi, I'm Aimee, the teacher behind Base Planners.

I’ve spent over a decade teaching senior English and Psychology, and I've also juggled a few leadership stints as an accredited AITSL Lead Teacher.

I'm still in the classroom today, and I know exactly how challenging it can be to stay on top of everything this busy job throws at you.

For me, the Base Planner is more than just a planner; it’s the system I rely on to stay organised, sane, and in the right place at the right time. I’d be genuinely lost without it.

After a sell-out launch last year, it turns out so many of you were looking for the same thing I was: a planner that’s practical, flexible and made for real teaching life.

Meet Our 2026 Cover Artist

Continuing our tradition of partnering with incredible local artists, this year, we’re proud to team up with Naarm/Melbourne-based muralist and painter Justine McAllister.

You may have seen some of her murals around Melbourne. Justine has also designed iconic tour posters for Pearl Jam and Blink-182, and recently exhibited her work internationally in Japan.

Like us, Justine is a big believer in going against the grain of current saturated trends, and was eager to produce a dynamic and engaging cover design that would stand out as an artwork in its own right.
