Yes, expected to stay on for 2y after MLS. That said, HR postings will override this - so it shouldn't delay possible VP-ship.

Based on observation, MLS doesn't really have any impact on progression. Plenty of SLs have not gone through it.

You can probably consider if, at this juncture, you'd prefer to start at a new school or take the development break. If you're currently doing well in your current posting (A/B as HOD, with offer to go on MLS) it should be good to stay on? Especially if you're happy there with good ROs/mentors. You can also try being candid with your RO about SL aspirations - they're probably best positioned to advise better.
