Even with boundaries made clear, some kuku parents still message AND expect a prompt reply after hours. Worse still, I became a messenger for them. Whatever they forgot to tell that kid that morning, they tell me to tell them. Worse still got parents expect me to reply to her to confirm that I passed her message to her son. One kind one.

Now I don't bother. Any homework or reminders, whiteboard & student diary are enough. It teaches kids responsibility as well. You never write, too bad. Go sort it out yourself or ask your classmates. Parents can only contact me via email. Email as a medium is still formal, so a lot of thought has to be put in by the parents before they send it. Hence, if they send, it's usually urgent or important.

You can't tell them in class?

You give a lot of last-minute instructions?

Don't remember the answer to the first (I don't recall it taking very long - might be the day itself or after), but you're expected to stay with the school for 3 years after appointment (unless posted elsewhere by MOE). This only applies if you stay in service - no bond to the organisation as a whole.

Be optimistic. Your pay raise as Geo5 cum Hod, is in the form of A performance bonus.

And, as Hod, you do enjoy power
Hod, can know and do ranking for up to SEO1 people, ie the SH/LH/ST/AYH.

You will usually know the results on the day of the KP interview.
After official appointment in the same sch, you need to stay in the school for 2 years before you can apply for OPE/PDL etc. If you are appointed in a different school through OPE, then you will need to stay in the school for 3 years.
