Suggest Preference Group Detail page has an additional tab called "Text Entry Fields".

Allows the manager to enter multiple questions that will be displayed in a preference group with a rich text entry field with a maximum of 1,000 characters.

Possible for a preference group to have a mixture of questions and preference boxes and to reorder them.

Text entries would appear on the student receipt and in a Report called "Free Text Responses By Student". The report would include all items of the preference group eg if a pref group had 3 pref boxes, 2 reserve boxes and 2 text entry questions, the report would display all the entries made by the student for that preference group. If a student didn't select a reserve, it would only show the label "Reserve 2:"

The report to be ordered 1 student per page, in the event of the data spilling across multiple pages, the next student should commence at the top of the next page - rather than starting on a page with another student's data above it.

Plain text for initial release, gather feedback if rich text is required.
