PCG Submitting an Excursion Proposal

Step-By-Step Guide:

  1. Prior to submitting a proposal, you should make a general enquiry as to whether the dates and times you are suggesting are likely to be appropriate.  This will avoid submitting a proposal and having it immediately declined.

    Your school has outlined the appropriate contacts for this in your Excursion Procedures (located in the top navigation bar).

  2. After logging in to PlanCheckGo, click the “Create Proposal” button in the top left navigation bar.

    Complete the proposal form and all the mandatory fields (marked by an *). There are 5 short sections that require completion here:

    1. Excursion Proposal e.g. who – what – when and where are you going?
    2. Excursion Outline e.g. why are you going and how does it relate to the syllabus?
    3. Staff/Student Information e.g. how many students and staff will be attending? Are there any specific medical needs that need to be considered?
    4. Estimated Budget e.g. how much do you anticipate/estimate the excursion will cost based on your current knowledge?

    Note

    These sections can only be completed in the ordered listed above


  3. Before submitting your proposal, you will be able to review all details in the Summary section. If any details need be be changed, press the 'Back' button and amend as required. When you are happy with your proposal, press 'Submit'.

  4. Your proposal will be sent to the approver/s you selected on the ‘Excursion Details’ Page (A). A notification will also be sent to the administrators you selected in Step 3 too.

Note

Upon submitting your proposal, your approver/s will review the proposal based on numerous variables set out by your school. These may include:

    • Date and time
    • Appropriateness of excursion
    • Cost
    • Staff rostering and availability etc.
