Student Led Conferences
Student Led Conferences are an opportunity for parents, teachers, and students to come together to discuss the student’s ongoing academic progress, effort, and behaviour. It is also an opportunity to share individual circumstances that may better inform the teachers in differentiating student learning.
When student-led conferences take place, the face-to-face conferences will be held at QACI, or alternatively parents/carers may choose to engage in an online conference using the Microsoft Teams application.
Students who attend school during Student-led Conferences will take part in an alternative academic program to allow student and staff flexibility to accommodate the conferences.

- For online conferences parents/carers will need to login to the PTOnline booking system and then click on the link provided beside the teacher’s name. Please note that the link will not be available until 15 minutes prior to the scheduled conference time. Please ensure your student has a copy of the conference schedule.
- Teachers will let parents into the Teams meeting at the booked time of each conference.
