We have included three versions:

    • Business Tours

    • Future Fairs

    • Combined Business Tours and Future Fairs

    We have also included the teacher signature form to be printed on the back of the permission slip.


    Many schools have been successful providing the Combined Parent Permission Slip early on in the year and then provide the Teacher Notification Slip closer to the date of the events as a reminder and a form of accountability.


    *Please confirm with your school's FCA Lead which permission slip to use.
