Parent/teacher/student conference

This sounds like a logical and good new idea updating the parent/teacher conference - include the student!

Seems like a no-brainer, hopefully the educational establishment won't drag its feet as it does so often on progressive ideas like this.

Making these less formal and more inclusive would have major benefits I think. The more help you get in addressing issues from several angles (including uncles, grandparents and others), while in a low stress environment, the better. It might help bridge the gaps in understanding that can develop.
