Student Led Conferences - Thursday 18 September, 8:30am - 3:30pm
Student Led Conferences have been scheduled for all students on Thursday 18 September from 8:30am to 3:30pm.
These 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 any individual circumstances that may better inform the teachers in differentiating student learning.
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 on this day will take part in an alternative academic program to allow student and staff flexibility to accommodate the conferences.
Please note that several teachers will be on leave during Week 10, and there may also be additional absences on the day. If a teacher is unavailable or on leave, you are welcome to contact them in Term 4 for feedback. Absent teachers will also be encouraged to follow up with families in Term 4.
