Parent Teacher Interviews

HSPA Secondary Parent Teacher Interviews (PTI) are conducted both ONSITE and ONLINE.

This is to cater for our large drawing area. We understand that it can be difficult for families who live a distance from the school to attend onsite.

An email will be sent close to PTI dates, to notify parents when they can commence booking. Our community traditionally books very early, so it is recommended that you book early to ensure maximum flexibility & availability of times.

Go to HSPA Sentral to book interview times with applicable teachers. This can also be completed using the Sentral Portal App. Sentral Parent Portal instructions for booking interviews are here, if required
