Libby Marshall's daughter will join thousands of school leavers on the Gold Coast next month for a week of celebrations.

The Ashgrove mother said she was upset to receive an email from Schoolies.com which promoted "exclusive experiences" for people who join Tinder.

"I was flabbergasted to read that Tinder was coming to Schoolies to give 'single brand-new experiences' — it was very confronting," Ms Marshall said.

"I really am upset about it to be honest.

"To be engaging our young people in that kind of network really is disturbing."

The mother said the State Government's messaging around Schoolies was for revellers to party with their friends, be safe and look after each other.

"Tinder encourages people to go off and have one-on-one relationships or experiences by themselves," she said.

The Brisbane mother said she wanted Schoolies organisers, among them the Safer Schoolies Gold Coast Advisory Group, to intervene in the partnership between the two companies.

"I would hope that the Tinder/Schoolies.com partnership is taken away and it's stopped," she said.

"We do not need to be promoting promiscuity to our children. There is enough of that in the world."

'A massive step backwards'

Queensland Tourism Minister Kate Jones also expressed her outrage over the partnership.

"As a parent myself, I do not support this partnership with Tinder. I think we should give it a huge swipe to the left and reject it," she said.

"We have worked really hard as a Government to build safe and responsible experiences where our young people can come and have a great time at Schoolies, so I share parents' concerns and I don't think we should be entering a partnership with Tinder," Ms Jones said.

"It seems like a massive step backwards."

Schoolies.com chief executive Matt Lloyd defended the company's collaboration with the dating website, saying school leavers' safety remained a top priority.

"Schoolies has evolved over the past 30 years," he said.

"Gen Z has grown up with technology and connecting online is something they are familiar with. As technology evolves, our program does too.

"Tinder is just one of the new tech partnerships being rolled out at Schoolies 2019, offering those Schoolies over 18 years of age the opportunity to connect with each other."

Ms Jones said the Government was investigating whether it could intervene to stop the deal.

"This is one where Queenslanders and parents should say very loudly and clearly what their voice is," she said.

"I don't think this is sending the right message."
