Maintaining parent teacher interviews

Synergetic allows you to maintain all of the information you need to schedule and conduct parent teacher interviews (PTI). Parent teacher interviews consist of:

• cycles
• a number of sessions within each cycle
• a grid of time slots for the staff members being interviewed, for each session.

A cycle is simply a set of sessions that are usually related. For example, you might have the Year 7 parent teacher interviews as one cycle and the Year 8/9 as another cycle.
