i) is my rate of promotion considered average/slow? I’m not the sort to ask my colleagues/friends about such things so I really have no idea.
ii) Do you think my secondment will have an impact on my career progression? (Am really trying to get on the teaching track)

Your rate of progression is ok. Based on what you shared, you should have gotten your cohort promotion in Apr 2016. 4 years from geo3 to geo4 is average, although some teachers here will argue that it is still considered fast because "some people stay at geo3 forever" (the stagnation is usually the officer's own fault, or own intention).
Secondment to an independent school should not have noticeable negative impact on your career progression.
