Ive heard that HR will only take into account the honours for your first degree and base your pay on that. Is this true? And will part-time teaching experience factor in into the starting pay?
Also, since i've already taken my masters, are there opportunities to do a PHD/EdD in the future, (e.g. 5 years into teaching?) or will it be reserved only for more senior teachers/ scholars?

Civil service pay is based on bachelors. Having masters or phd doesn't mean anything in terms of starting pay. At best a higher cep.
You can take a self-paid masters anytime. If you want a fully sponsored masters, have to apply for postgrad scholarship (more for high cep people).
If you have served long enough, e.g. 10-15 years, you may take a paid sabbatical to do a masters at own expense.
