Student, Parent, Teacher Conferences
Student, parent, teacher conferences are held twice a year as a 3-way conference in mid term 1 and as a student led conference at the end of term 2. Parents are notified in advance of the schedule for conferences and the opening time of bookings on Gateway. Bookings are on a first come first served basis. Please make sure your Gateway login details are correct to avoid delays. If the Gateway account has not been activated this school year, please log in early to complete the student and family data verification process which may take 5 minutes or more.
