If you have proof, then report the doctor.
No the doctor didn't have to risk anything. All individuals, including educators, possess the entitlement to utilize sick leave as necessary, irrespective of the veracity of their ailment. Such speculations regarding the authenticity of illnesses or alleged financial inducements to medical professionals are unwarranted as it mainly undermine the foundation of trust within the workplace. Plus to evaluate or judge an individual's efficacy based on their medical absences is purely unjust. Performance assessments should be predicated on job duties and accomplishments, rather than health-related factors. Cultivating an environment that embraces and supports the health requirements of colleagues is paramount in nurturing a workplace culture that values well-being. However, our MOE schools, SLs, KPs and teachers mindsets are way far from that culture.

They face greater risk if anything happen to the patient

Most doctors will just give MCs.

Just look at your students, and how easily they can get MCs.

And which minister control that ministry?

Please remember to do your appraisal and ranking properly when the time comes.

why? Some SLs and KPs are really scumbags and mother****ers and if they are why should we not expose them?

Apparently the principal told him that he is not supposed to go around telling others, especially young colleagues, such things, even when he is already a very experienced teacher. He was told that it was a bad example to younger officers.

Not sure what to feel about this.
the person who snitched presumably needed to do that to sleep better at nite?

I was in a school where the daily msg bombardment was super bad, until I switched school and immediately noticed how different the new place was. Barely any messages outside of work hours or during holiday protected time. All because the principal clamped down hard on it a few years ago.

Cshx Hi all, I really would appreciate some answers cos 63206320 doesn't pick up my calls and I wait for their email replies till neck long long...

This 2024 Dec, I will receive my 10 year pay out. I will be on maternity leave from Oct 2024 onwards and the leave should be till Feb 2025. From there, I intend to take 1 year of NPL. May I know if there is a clause saying that you need to stay for a period of time after you collect your pay out, or else, they will take it back from you?
If so, any idea how long that period is?

I hearsay from a colleague that her sis, a GEO 5 had to stay 3 months after taking the pay out. Don't know if that's accurate.
I'm GEO 4 btw.

Any advice would be appreciated..

Thanks!

Took MC recently as I was sick (fever, sore throat etc) and was bombarded with msgs from the admin staff and also comm members who were eagerly sharing what they did in their respective departments... Simply didn't care or reply to the latter, and for those admin, I made it very explicit that I was sick and I needed rest, and no laptop = no work could be done. They sounded pretty pissed, but that shows a lot about the culture. It's up to us to say no and resist the pressures to perform, to react, otherwise nobody will protect your sanity.
