How to use this

Use this checklist to decide what permit information your school asks for, who reviews it, and how missing or rejected uploads affect scheduling.

Permit upload checklist

Permit/photo requirements: tell families what image or file quality is acceptable. Student/guardian review: confirm who uploads and who is responsible for follow-up. Status tracking: missing, pending review, approved, rejected, or needs replacement. Missing document follow-up: create a clear reminder workflow before first lesson. Package eligibility: decide which packages require permit review before booking. Scheduling impact: block or flag booking when permit status is not ready, if school policy requires it.

When to stop using spreadsheets and use software

Stop using spreadsheets when permit status needs to affect enrollment, package eligibility, dashboard alerts, reminders, and booking readiness.
