parent teacher conference

Academic progress discussion

A parent teacher conference is a scheduled meeting between a student's parent or guardian and their teacher, typically held once or twice per school year to discuss the child's academic progress, behavior, and development.

These conferences give parents insight into classroom performance and allow teachers to address concerns: I have a parent teacher conference at three o'clock.

Also spelled parent-teacher conference.
