Current payscales
(This is after the recent 8% increment)
(For beginning GEO1 rates, prob can just refer to MOE website) GEO1A1: 3380-5540 GEO1A2: 4450-6912 GEO1A3: 4806-7452 SEO1: 5184-8316 SEO1A1: 7236-9288 SEO1A2: 8748-11232 Of course, most teachers max out at GEO1A3. SEO1, 1A1, 1A2 are for SH/LH, HOD, VP ranks respectively. As mentioned before, pay alone won't sustain you... really need to find the job meaningful to go on. That said, if you think you'll enjoy it, the numbers above should help you make a decision ;) |
pay increment from GEO 1.1 to GEO 1A1
does anyone know what is the increment for GEO 1.1 to GEO 1A1, not inclusive of annual increment?

Thanks for the info below, very useful.
What I find confusing is the very limited range over the whole career. For eg. let's say I am a good performer who can retire at the max of SEO1A1 monthly of 9288. If I join MOE at 25 yrs old with standard honors, starting is already ~3400. That means over the next 40 years of my career until retirement, I only have 9288 - 3400 = 5888 to move assuming best case scenario .That works out to be ~2.5% increment annual. Historically the range increase a few % every few years, but it does not seem to gel with all the stories I keep hearing from my teacher friends about easily getting 6% to 10% yearly. At that kind of rate they would have hit the ceiling before 40 yrs old. This situation is much worse for an average performer who retires at GEO1A3 max of 7452. Only reason I can think of is they actually slow down the increment a lot in the later years. Anyone with exp can share? Quote:

I got around $500 promotion increment from 1.1 to 1A1.
As for progression, what I hear is that it's not that rare for officers to max out their payscale… I'm nowhere near that stage yet so can't give any first-hand info, though. |

But once you hit 40, they know you screwed. Most teachers >40 no other work experience, got liability, where else can they run? That is when their increment suddenly become pathetic and sometimes don't even get any because max range already. whatever peanut, you also LLST. My uncle is a retired teacher, he told me for the last 15 years with MOE, his salary just adjust slightly every few years because he long time ago already hit the max. |
Then be smart about it. Save up and start a tuition centre with fellow senior teachers. Tuition business will boom like crazy in the next few years cos schools don't do proper teaching anymore - they "teach less" and now encourage kids to "play more".
