Parent consultation appointment day

1. Log in to Teams using your child's account for your first meeting.
2. Join the Parent Consultation meeting in Teams from the Calendar icon or from the Posts section. 
3. Wait in the 'lobby' for the teacher to be ready to see you and join you.
4. Finish your meeting, leave and log-out. If needed, switch accounts for your next child and repeat, ready for your next child's teacher.

Behind the scenes, each class teacher has one long meeting running for each morning or evening session. Parents join the meeting using their child's account and wait in a virtual 'lobby' for other parents to finish their meeting. The teacher will know you are there and join you when they are ready.
