Very anecdotal, but I do know of a SAD who was posted back to school as a VP. But I assume he cleared VP interview along the way, so if you've not heard about that... might not be so soon?

A general statistic I can say is that, for most of the teachers who left the service, close to none regretted the decision (no matter which other industry they ended up in). Stay positive and look ahead ok! When there's a will, there's a way :) |

Increment
Hi,
I would like to check if during my contract teaching stint as well as NIE training, will there be any pay increment? |
I have a school mate who is in her mid 30s and is already a VP.

LMS is nothing-anyone with a local uni placement can get this money. People here are the lowest batch of scholars and their CEP usually ends up with just a senior lt colonel thats all. Full colonel if they are ok. No scholarship means you are a farmer. Usually you will progress really slowly and end rank is Major or Lt Colonel. |

Similarly we have a lot of scholar HODs who are high performing in their managerial roles but wait very long for a VP(EO) opening to become vacant. |
Anyone can share what fresh grads are getting these days? I heard it's around 3.7-3.8k for FCH with NS?

Any teachers or ex-teachers moved to/from MX scheme? Am thinking of quitting teaching to join other ministries, and wondering which scheme pays better. Thanks!

Hi, am interested to pursue a career with MOE as a teacher.
Curious on the starting salary and general pay progression from trainee all the way up to 8-10 years of exp. Any insights would be valuable thank you. |

Hi! If I take NPL for two months to care for my mother, will my annual merit increment be pro-rated? I understand that my connect plan and performance grade will be affected as well. TY!

Secondment to MOE kindergarten
Hi all,
Would like to ask if anyone is seeking a secondment to MOE kindergarten or have friends who have done so during previous OPE, any views on that? if there are any MK educators willing to shed some light on what work is like as a kindergarten teacher, would like to hear from you too. TIA! :) |

However, CEP is very fluid in a teacher's first five or so years of service, which are (arguably) the most crucial years for determining your career trajectory, whether you are a scholar or not. If you underperform during the first few years it is possible to squander any advantage you had as a scholar; conversely during this time non-scholars may set themselves up for a fast and exciting career if they are high performing and/or happen to be in the good books of their RO and SLs. |

First posting to an independent school 2012: 4.1k (GEO 2 - the old scheme was 1.1, or 2.1) 2013: 4.6k (GEO 3 - old GEO 1A1 scheme) 2014: 4.8k (GEO 4 - old GEO 1A2) Changed schools. 2015 - 2017: went to 6.1k iirc Changed schools again 2018: 6.3k 2019: 6.5k (became SH) 2021: 7.1k (GEO 5) Key things I've learnt 1. Your relationship with all HODs and SLs are crucial. While you can do good dept work and your HOD can attest to it, join committees chaired by other HODs. More voices to help fight for you and corroborate your contributions (of course dont screw up). 2. The only way to get promoted fast is to be doing work at a higher GEO level. Notice I did not just say "do more work", but do work that is at a higher GEO level. Look at the EPMS form of an SEO (or at least GEO 5), and notice how the impact needs to be more level wide. So,do more impactful work that goes beyond the classroom. 3. Scholars (LMS, Overseas) do get a better head start (in terms of opportunities and perception). But if you screw up, you hentak kaki. I have also seen non-scholars rise. You have to create your own opportunities and take them. I have seen HODs demoted to being a normal teacher, departments complaining to Supt about HODs. Being a HOD does not automatically make you a leader (let alone a good one). Have the right values and lead with a heart. 4. If you choose to just be a Happy, Ordinary Teacher, that is fine. Just be happy and go with the flow. Maxing out at GEO 5 with a 7.8k salary is not bad compared to private sector. Every career has its pros and cons. 5. To BTs, don't just mix with other BTs / young teachers. Your older colleagues have the wisdom of experience to share with you. |

Are lead teachers and senior teachers considered leadership positions?
|
Quote:
They are however expected to lead in mentoring, pedagogy, etc. They are also called Teacher Leaders. So depends on how you look at it, STs, LTs and MTs can be considered leaders, or not. It also depends on the school. Some treat them as leaders, some don't, and some treat them as those who couldn't make it on Leadership track. It really depends. |

Subsequent promotions after the cohort promotion no longer follow a fixed time-in-grade structure. |
