Template

School trip consent form

The paper slip, without the schoolbag. Guardians confirm permission, leave an emergency number and sign on screen, and the medical and dietary questions only appear for the pupils who are actually coming.

This is the actual form the template creates, shown as your respondents would see it.

Features it uses

Conditional questions

The dietary, medical and certificate fields appear only when permission is given, so nobody answers questions that do not apply.

Signature field

The guardian signs on a phone or tablet, and the signature is stored with the submission.

Private file upload

A medical certificate is stored on a private disk, downloadable only from your workspace. Needs Pro or Business.

Retention that matches the trip

Set a short retention period so medical details do not survive into the next school year.

Making it yours

  1. 1

    Copy it into your workspace

    It arrives as a draft you can edit freely.

  2. 2

    Write the introduction

    Put the destination, dates, cost and packing list in the opening paragraph so the form is the only thing parents need.

  3. 3

    Set a closing date

    Schedule when the form closes and what parents see afterwards.

  4. 4

    Send the link home

    One link by email or your school platform, and one list you can check before departure.

Common questions

Do parents need to install or sign up for anything?
No. The form is a public link that opens in any browser.
Can I collect a contribution towards the trip?
Yes. Enable payments on the form and set an amount. Payments need Pro or Business and your own Mollie account.
How long are the medical details kept?
For as long as your workspace retention setting says, after which they are deleted automatically, along with any uploaded certificate.
