would like to share mine. up till last year june(13 yrs in service), i also thought releasing schools can only delay the posting of a teacher if he/she accepts an offer from another school. however, one of my colleagues had her posting cancelled after HR stepped in due to manpower allocation policy thus changing my understanding of how the system works. My P as the releasing school, did not make any request to HR to deny the posting, so i guess HR have some guidelines to adhere to. not many cases, but it exists.
