Building setup

A building can contain one or more rooms. A school can have one or more buildings. A building, and thus some or all of the rooms it contains, may be shared between two or more schools. In a shared building, some rooms may belong to one school while others are shared (for example, a band room or computer lab). Where a room is shared, you can specify when it is available to the school. Each school can give the same shared building a different name.
