Parent-Teacher Interviews May 2023 

 Dear Parents, 

Parent-Teacher interviews will be held for years Prep to Year 6 on the 3rd and 4th of May.  No booking can be made yet.  Interviews will be of 10 minutes duration.

For these interviews, we are using the online booking system called Parent Teacher On-Line (PTO). It saves time for parents, staff and students! 

Using this system, you will be able to book the interview times that suit you best from any internet enabled device. PTO also has its own free app for Apple and Android devices. Contact our school office, if you do not have access to a device. 

The booking system will be open and live on 21st of April at 3 p.m.  No bookings can be made before this time.

In the first week of Term 2 you will receive a paper slip with your student’s EQ ID.  You will require this to log on when our booking system goes ‘live’.  Please keep this slip safe.  

From 21st of April, you will be able to access the system as follows:

  • Click the PTO icon as shown here

  • Click “Obtain PIN/Password” and enter your email address.  Your PIN will be emailed to you. 

Full instructions are provided to you after log in. Please note the following points:

  • When you log on, enter your student I.D. number which will have been sent home on a yellow slip.  If two parents/guardians wish to attend, one parent/guardian should make the booking then both can attend.
  • You will only see time slots that are available at the time you are using the system. As time slots are booked for teachers, those time slots are no longer displayed as available. PTO prevents double-booking of teachers or parents/guardians.
  • When you have made all the bookings you require, you can download or email a report of your bookings in time order for printing. You can log in and change bookings any time up to 12 p.m. on the day of the interview.
  • Other parents may be making bookings at the same time that you are using the system. It is possible, though unlikely, that a time slot is displayed to you as available, but is then booked by another parent shortly afterwards. If you then attempt to book this time slot it will not be available and a message will be displayed to indicate this.
  • If you encounter any problems using PTO please contact the school office by phone on 3358 7333 or by email to kbrad27@eq.edu.au 

Any feedback you may wish to provide will be most welcome.
