German term

aktuelle Standortbestimmung

German to English Social Sciences Education / Pedagogy school report
With regard to the evaluation meeting (Standortgespräch), the text says the following:

"Das Gespräch ist eine ***aktuelle Standortbestimmung*** und dient der gegenseitigen Information."

I'm having trouble with the term in asterisks, any help greatly appreciated. Thanks :-)

informal discussion

Clearly "informal discussion" is not really the actual translation but it might be the closest you can get to this. If a discussion is to provide participants with the opportunity for an "aktueller Standortbestimmung" then it will most likely be an informal exchange of experiences and views that will give everyone (teachers??) the chance to get up to date on the current situation at a particular site (school?). You´ve probably already guessed all that, but I hope it helps you somewhat anyhow. You´ll just have to use an approximate wording such as:
The discussion will provide parents/teachers with an opportunity to share their views and inform themselves on the current situation at the school.
