Parent Teacher Interview Bookings - Now Open

Day 1 - Thursday 9 August

Day 2 - Monday 13 August

Parent teacher interviews are an opportunity for you to meet with as many of your son’s teachers as possible.  Recent trends have shown that over 80% of interviews occur before 6:15pm on any given interview night.  Consequently, we are changing the interview times on Thursday 9 August as a trial to determine whether these better suit your needs.  The interview times for each night are as follows:

Bookings are made via our web based booking system (details below) or a hard copy booking form can be obtained from Mrs Etchells in our Academic Administration office.  Bookings will open at 9:00am on Tuesday 24 July for both evenings.  You will be able to make or change your bookings at your convenience before 3:00pm the day before the scheduled interview day (3:00pm on Friday 10 August for Monday's interviews).  However, a “first come first served” principle applies when making bookings.  Parents who make their bookings first should be able to group their interviews together and should have access to all their son’s teachers.  Please allow 5 minutes for movement between successive bookings.  Late bookings, or last minute changes, may result in interviews being spread or some teachers being unavailable.

Before booking interviews please ensure you know who your son’s teachers are.  We would encourage you to double check teacher names as we do have multiple teachers who share the same surnames.  These can be accessed via the Parent Portal if required.  Please use your son’s first name and last name as they appear in the Parent Portal.

To make bookings over the internet please:

1.    Log on to the website: www.schoolinterviews.co.nz from 9.00am 24 July 

2..    Enter the password: tkbvu

3. Follow the instructions to book interview times with your son’s teachers.

a.   For Year 9 & 10 students: please limit these to English, Maths, Science and Social Studies and only one other subject teacher (if required).

b.   For Year 11, 12 and 13 students: select all teachers as required.

c.   Interviews with the Careers Advisor, Guidance Counsellor, Deans or Hostel Manager can also be made.

4.    Please note that each interview with a teacher lasts for only 5 minutes.

5.    We recommend you leave at least a 5 minute gap between interviews.

Should you require any assistance please contact Mrs Etchells at etchellsa@pnbhs.school.nz or phone 354 5176 ext. 706
