Resolve curriculum or generation problems

If no official indicator is available, check the subject’s catalogue match, curriculum stage and timetable choice. AI assistance depends on the account or school’s AI billing settings and does not replace the teacher’s review. Saving a draft and submitting a note are separate steps.
