Cycles with a window that actually closes
A cycle opens and closes on dates you set. Before it opens and after it shuts, booking is refused rather than quietly accepted — so the list a teacher prints on Friday is the list they meet on Tuesday.

Booking that closes itself, and follow-ups that do not get lost
Open a meeting cycle, publish the slots, and let families book the time that suits them. The evening runs to a schedule, and what was agreed afterwards is tracked until it is done.

Everything you need, built in
Two parents cannot take the same slot
A slot is claimed in a single conditional write, so the second of two simultaneous bookings is told the time has gone instead of both being confirmed. This is the failure schools remember, and it is designed out rather than warned about.
Follow-ups expressed as what is still owed
After a meeting the state is not 'done' or 'not done' — it is whether a note is still to be written, or an action still to be taken. Leadership sees the outstanding column, not a wall of green ticks.
Families book without an account chase
Parents book from the portal they already use for reports and messages, on a phone, without a separate invitation or a new password.
