For the new batches for 16-month PGDE, I’m not sure

Isn't counting by connect plan the same? If in wrong, which number is bigger? Lol

Hi there, gonna participate in open posting for the first time this year, hopefully a few kind souls will help out here. Considering applying to HQ, is a resume required for that? Or just like application to schools everything is compiled by HR? Thanks.

2021 - Appointed SH. Didn’t do internal covering. Grade B

Been getting Bs. Non-graduate, non scholar, just a lot of love for teaching and the children.

What the salary range for GEO2-GEO4?

Have you been getting Cs for annual grade? If you don't mind sharing...

wa that's damn sian. yea mostly C. 1 C+ I think. Never C- or D.

The way I see it, most of u are doing fine

I was still geo3 after 10 years of service. Gross salary below $5k. Male.

Many of those who has lesser years of service n whom have taken maternity once or twice already at geo 4.

Fed up n resigned last year

Now still jobless. Facing String of rejections now

Like schools lor.. Depends on where you are. Some postings more shiong than others. But more importantly try to sound out how the bosses are like. But again, this one may change since AD and DD also do 3 Yr cyles.

But on good thing is that there is a stronger commitment to respecting off work hours. So you don't get WhatsApp msgs from bosses on off hours/days. Unless truly necessary

Not sure if a resume helps tbh.. I ever applied to a posting in CCE branch. Even for the first round interview, they had to conduct multiple sessions. I don't think the AD and DD would bother to read thru tall the resumes.
