Openstudio Space Types vs. Spaces

Hi, I would like to model a school with several types of spaces (classrooms, computer rooms etc). Each of the spaces has the same maximum load but different schedules. On the space types tab I can define for each of the space types the loads, however I don't have a default schedule for each type, as each classroom has a different timetable. On the Spaces tab, under sub-tab "properties" I inserted for each space their unique schedule set (see attached picture). However when I opened the sub-tab "loads" I discovered that the loads and schedules are defined like the spaces types.

How can I make sure that each of the spaces gets its unique schedule set? Thank you

On sub-tab loads the schedules are set as the default schedule of the space type
