Career as Teacher

I’ve been told frequent MC will affect ranking. 2 days of MC per term is it considered frequent?

And why would they keep records of rejects.
Too many to keep track and monitor.

Well, you apply and past records are all tagged. If you deem it to be fake, you will be surprised.

if frequently on MC
u think can survive annual appraisal?

Went to input my numbers for the ST salary guide and feeling very underpaid. Anyone else? Overheard some of the new BTs, they just came in May/Jun discussing about their pay, and I realised I'm paid the same as them after 6y.

Why should they do more work?

They won't bother to keep track.

Too much effort.

System already bars repeat apps for 6 months.

Which takes more effort, dumping an applicant's info into an Excel sheet or setting up interviews for a re-applicant which you might not want?

I know HR does its due diligence for even casual relief applicants, so pretty sure they'd track applicants for perm roles esp if time had been invested into processing, interviewing and deciding to offer that applicant.

Impossible to be paid the same as them after 6 years, unless you are on a different scheme? Or diploma holder?
