Operations holds three numbers that drive dashboards and family requirements.

Before you start

Steps​

  1. Open Account → Manage School and tap Operations.
    The Operations section of Edit School
  2. Fill in the fields you need:
    • Capacity: the total number of children the school can enroll. Utilization and target insights compare enrollment to this number.
    • Required Emergency Contact Count: how many emergency contacts every child must have. Children below this number show as missing emergency contacts.
    • Benefits %: the percentage added on top of wages when payroll cost is calculated (for example, 12.5).
  3. Tap Save Changes.

Tips​

  • Classrooms have their own capacity and child-to-teacher ratio. See Set school and classroom capacity.
  • Raising the required emergency contact count immediately flags every child who has fewer contacts, and families see a request to add more.
