How is the FSBB situation like in schools? Is it better for students?

The situation with FSBB is really bad. There are insufficiencies in the resources - but the most crucial is the lack of teachers. A lot are on NPL and I know like 10 who quit the service. I think I am going to tender soon as the workload has been really bad. Anxieties are not only acting up on Sundays but everyday.

Teachers are going to be stretched to their limits with longer timetables, more classes and more preps. Headcount is still falling.
Better for students.. if things go according to plan, definitely. But if teachers don't survive this transition, then the benefits are hard to translate to the students.

I just transferred to another school this year so also tough to find out from previous school.
Thanks in advance!

How to make it work?
By simply ensuring that the necessary resources and staffing are provided?
The worst has yet to come. Can expect to become even busier when the secondary school system transit to the new exam system from the current O/NA/NT system.

Because of school mergers and shrinking populations..... observed at the macrolevel. Some of these policy makers really need to come back to the ground to teach if not they are not going to lead anybody... a lot will be jaded to join the private industry...

I refer us here to the case where the student died while at outdoor camps. Now, all the outdoor camps are run by MOE staff. We will never know when this change occurred but it sure seems reactive.
Can’t be that no one saw how slack the external vendors were? But ya, some of us noticed the trend that once a death occurs, something WILL change.

It has actually happened to teachers before. The grey area here is that reasons for death are often not as straightforward or clear, hence it becomes very hard to pinpoint it immediately and attribute it to "overwork", something which organisations would become very defensive about since this concerns their reputation.
This could also be the reason why it's so hard to find news about teacher feedback or responses? In fact, incidents concerning teachers are so hard to find in the news after a while. The above link used to be published on other news sites before, but cannot be found anymore (removed?) except on Stomp.
