Parent Teacher Interviews
Thank you again to all parents / guardians for attending the Parent Teacher Interviews on 14 August. We look forward to our second one on 4 September at 2.15 – 8.15pm. Bookings are now back open for parents to book their online interview.
Appointments
Appointments will last for 7 minutes with 2 minutes provided to move from one appointment to another.
If the occasion arises whereby parents / carers miss making an appointment, then they are asked to contact staff directly. Please do not ask staff on reception to book appointments for you.
Clarification for Online Appointments (Wednesday 4 September 2.15pm – 8.15pm)
• Your interview schedule will be the same as it is when the interview is face to face.
• The interview will occur on MS Teams using your child’s Loyola account.
• At the scheduled time, the teacher will ring the student on their MS Teams account – please be available to receive the call.
• Cameras will be required to be switched on by the teacher and student/parent.
• If unanswered, the teacher will call for a second time during the designated appointment time.
• If the call is still unanswered, then the teacher will not attempt to call again.
• The student may message the teacher in the chat if they wish, explaining the reason for the absence. Depending on the reason, the teacher may call again.
• Interviews will last for 7 minutes with a 2-minute gap before the next one.
• We acknowledge some families have special circumstances. If both parents wish to attend these Conversations, we ask that you make one mutually agreed interview time.
• If you are unable to attend together, but both still wish to meet with your child’s Subject Teacher, please make an alternative time directly with your child’s Subject Teacher.
