Software tools for teachers
Would teachers be interested in using software tool to speed up marking and provides analytics to identify student's strength and weanknesses? I saw this at Snapngrade.com. Wonder if teachers are stressed put over marking pspers and homework?

(b) like the earlier reply, it'll take a while. For males, they get GEO3 one year after confirmation. Females, 2. For the rest, it depends on your performance and potential (c) don't assume the school will want to groom you. You have to get the basics right first. Like teaching well, managing your form class and cca, which can be quite daunting for bts. Of course if toy show initiative and competence, your ro and sls will turn be more willing to give you greater exposure. (d) My advice would be to always show a positive attitude in your work. Do everything the best that you can. Focus on your tnl and basics first. Build a reputation of competence. These take time. If you are serious about being a good teacher, it will take time. Don't run before you can walk. |

Hi all, I'm recently out of NS but havent applied to unis yet. So if I do start uni, itll be a while until I start.
Considered teaching when I was younger but I ended up chasing another type of career in poly. Recently while doing some life planning, I'm realising that teaching seems to be a much more viable option. However I have some concerns. If I apply for the MOE scholarship, how much allowance can I expect to get? I'm trying not to burden my parents so much and studying for 4 years whilst not getting full time pay (?) does not give me confidence that I can be self reliant. Also, I have always wanted to get tattoos (full back/chest/basically most places that would not show when you wear clothing). The common impression is that teachers must present themselves well and I am not sure if that would hinder my career/career progression if I do get it. Many thanks for anyone that helps :) |

Nobody is going to check underneath your clothing for tattoos. If you have tattoos but they are completely hidden by your clothing, I don't see a problem. |
Quote:
As for tattoos, i personally know of some colleagues that have tattoos who have good character/professional. If it is hidden, then it's not an issue. I doubt there will ever be a situation where you will need to expose your torso. |
Quote:
I'm sure there are many teachers with tattoos who are mroally upright or have good character. That said, if your tattoos are not visible, it should not be an issue. After all, how often do we bare our torsos while teaching? |
Quote:
I guess my concern was that it might affect career progression if its something that needs to be declared and the potential stigma associated by bosses Thanks for replying btw |

Those who applied for lessened workload due to family commitments...
What do u negotiate for? Like no cca? Not sure what to expect. |
Why do some say it take 2.5 years to promote from 3 to 4?
I have seen so many take almost 10 years to get promoted. And no no D. Just that the promotion is slow. |

First and foremost, the school should not be left worrying about their T&L. Not 100% perfect, but already of a high standard and able to independently reflect and constantly seek self-improvement. Then they must show ability to handle more things on their plate. Some schools test their promising geo3s by deploying them similarly to a geo4 or 5. This means double committees (including potentially 2ic of one), higher profile committees like student leadership, discipline, exams, etc., key roles in functional comms, CCA head, special programmes coordinators, sending them for cluster/zone/national sharing or to join NLCs. And we all know that to be promoted, you must show potential to work effectively at the higher level. In order to get the school to 'overload' a geo3, the school must trust that the young officer has his/her basics down. The basics must come automatically and with less effort compared to a BT. If they are still shaky during lesson obs, resources messy, cannot keep up with T&L responsibilities, tardy with single comm/single CCA work, then they can forget about being over-deployed with the intention of testing their readiness for promotion. |

Actually, who makes the decision? RO? SLs? What do they base it on? That the officer seems to be doing alright? Or CEP? Seems to be rather subjective also~ |

This is a well written summary!
Get the T&L & TSR basics done right, and further opportunities may come! Quote:

And no all are not scholars. I've seen a colleague taking 2 years to promote and 1 took 10 years to promote. They are of the same age. Both taking leadership roles. So just wondering how they determine and what is the norm from 3 to 4. |

MOE Connect Plan
Hi, I am in my 4th yr with MOE. Due to receive my 1st Connect Plan in Dec. Any idea if the pay out will be together with salary on the 12th or is it at the end of the month? Alao, how do I know how much I will receive? Want to start planning ahead. TIA!

I got mine on 19 Dec last year.

Heard from the grapevine that this year may not even have 13th month. Has that ever happened before?

The likely outcome is.. no year end AVC, but the rest remains intact. The best case scenario we can all wish for is a small lump sum payment (maybe a few hundred bucks?) in lieu of the AVC. |
MOE medical checkup
Hi, I am informed that I need to attend a medical checkup by MOE. But no offer yet. Is it uncommon? Normally, companies would offer the contract before asking you to attend medical right?

Hi everyone, what are the progression norms of different CEP for each substantive grade? E.g., if your CEP is p8, how long does it take to move from GEO3 to 4? Vs p7, P6, p5? Anyone from ranking panel or HR able to clarify?
|
Quote:
Go for medical check-up first, then employ. |
CAJT Application
Anyone applied for CAJT for 2021? Heard anything from the school / MOE?
|
Quote:
Anyway the CEP system is going to be overhauled next year. |

Is it true that moe teachers sidelining as tuition teachers is an open secret at work?
|
Quote:
Most of my friends in Sec sch have no time nor energy to give tuition... unless teaching less “heavy” subjects or really b motivated for the extra $ and they usually only have 1 or 2 max. Friends in pri sch tend to be the ones who can give tuition. |
Quote:
We don’t even know our own cep lol. But logically the ones with higher cep are promoted faster so they can reach their highest grade on time (before retirement) |
