On PGDE
Hi, I am currently doing PGDE at NIE. Can I confirm that the results and classification of PGDE does not affect your salary/CEP/career progression? i.e., just need to pass PGDE can already?

Full load 200 students, can squeeze out time to meet students after school for 2-3h is a luxury. At most maybe around 5 kids or 5 groups of students. 1/20 |

Some early bloomers might not stay 'blooming' later in life. MOE is not a service that is short of FCH holders from prestigious universities. To say that they deserve accelerated progression as a reward for doing well in an exam, is laughable. Among the many tiers of scholars, which scholar didn't do well for A levels? Which FCH holder didn't work hard for their degree? Despite all if them scoring straight As, the PSC scholar is better than the EMS scholars, who are in turn better than the teaching scholars? For someone to be promoted every 2 years while others are taking 3-5years (or even longer), is it really because they are twice as capable as their peers? Someone who didn't had a scholarship, or had a lower tier scholarship, they are forever in the less-competent bin of people regardless of how well they worked? SLs are ultimately people developers too. If they cannot 'develop' a scholar well, it also reflects badly on them in their work review. Very hard for them to justify why scholars posted to them are not developed to meet HQ's expectations. And since scholars usually stay for 2-3 years, it is easier to just give them good performance grades and have them move on to the next posting. For those who have been in the service for a while, we have definitely seen incompetent people leaving behind a mess for others to clean up, and still getting promoted despite the mess they created. |

For CEP, might make a difference if you are the valedictorian of your PGDE cohort |

Some maybe never go take up scholarship (use Parent’s scholarship lor) and then their paths become defined, even if they could be performing as good as higher tier scholars? This system is ********. |

The rest of the late bloomers, if they bloom, people will also notice them and they can also grab opportunities to showcase their talents if they want. |

However, your batch was already quite lucky to have made it to HOD levels. If you look at the younger officers, their chances are now even slimmer, especially for non scholars. In fact, it's hard to even get CONSISTENT A and B grades for non scholars. |
