The school paperwork
6 rows. A group is the level between a category and a task: one thing a person could hand over whole, split into the rows it actually takes. The app shows groups collapsed and lets you answer at either level.
| Task | How often | Minutes | Takes out of you | Sits in your mind | Breaks your day | The doing | The carrying |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Read the newsletters, emails and app messages and extract what matters | three times a week | 8 | barely notice it | never leaves your head | mostly flexible | 0.43 | 2.39 |
| why Vigilance 5: the cost is not reading them, it is holding what they said until the day it matters. | |||||||
| Keep the school dates in the family calendar | every two weeks | 15 | barely notice it | never leaves your head | mostly flexible | 0.13 | 1.41 |
| Track and return school forms and permission slips | once a week | 10 | a little | on your mind | needs a slot | 0.20 | 1.21 |
| why Frequency rises sharply at term start and end. This is the spec's own worked example (§2). | |||||||
| Pay for school lunches, trips, clubs and other charges | once a week | 10 | barely notice it | on your mind | needs a slot | 0.19 | 1.21 |
| Research, choose and apply for schools | once a year | 300 | takes something | never leaves your head | needs a slot | 0.12 | 1.02 |
| Report absences and deal with lateness and attendance | every six weeks | 10 | barely notice it | on your mind | breaks the day | 0.03 | 0.82 |
Which households get these
A new household is seeded from its own answers, so most of these rows only appear where they apply.
- Keep the school dates in the family calendar — households with a child of 3 or over
- Pay for school lunches, trips, clubs and other charges — households with a child of 3 or over, during term time
- Read the newsletters, emails and app messages and extract what matters — households with a child of 3 or over, during term time
- Report absences and deal with lateness and attendance — households with a child of 3 or over, during term time
- Research, choose and apply for schools — households with children, not seeded into a new household — found by searching
- Track and return school forms and permission slips — households with a child of 3 or over, during term time
Something missing, or something weighted wrong?
This is the part of Champignon that is genuinely unfinished, and the part a person outside this household can fix. Two routes, neither of which needs an account:
- Something we don't have — a task you do that isn't listed here.
- A weight that looks wrong — tell us which row, and what it should sit above or below. A comparison is actionable; feels wrong on its own isn't.
What happens next, and how a weight actually changes, is on Contribute.
