Why can’t my booking go through?There could be several reasons why your booking cannot go through: 1. Class Slot is Fully Booked: The class slot you are trying to book may already be filled to capacity. Each class has a set number of spots available, and once those spots are taken, new bookings cannot be accepted. 2. Class is Not Available for Booking: The class you are trying to book might not be open for new enrolments at this time. This could be due to the class being closed for registration, or the booking period may have ended. 3. Technical Difficulties: Technical issues on the platform may prevent bookings from being processed. If you suspect this might be the case, try refreshing the page or attempting the booking from a different device or browser.

-
How should class fees be indicated in the system?Class fees should be indicated for each individual class. If your school operates on a term or semester basis, you should divide the overall term or semester fee into the appropriate per-class fee. For example, if a term fee covers multiple classes, calculate the cost per class by dividing the total term fee by the number of classes. Input this per-class fee into the system for each class to accurately reflect the cost that students will be charged.
