Parent Teacher Interviews Video

This video explains how to set up and use the Parent Teacher Interview features in TASS.web Student Admin > Teacher Records > Parent Teacher Interviews and Staff Kiosk Staff > Parent Teacher Interviews.

It provides a comprehensive walkthrough of setting up and running Parent Teacher Interview conferences in TASS.web, covering planning, configuration and day‑of execution for schools. It explains the three available appointment allocation methods, highlights key setup decisions, and demonstrates how administrators configure conferences, schedules, rooms and access windows.

It also shows how teachers can manage appointments, record notes, access student information and assessment data, and use built‑in tools to support effective, informed conversations with parents during interviews.
