Pegging of EO grades, KP and HQ positions
Dear all,
I'm very new to this field! Just out of curiousity, what is the "pegging" between the EO grades, KP and HQ positions? Is this correct?
SEO3 = VP = DD in HQ
SEO2 = HOD = AD in HQ
SEO1 = Junior HOD = Lead Manager in HQ
GEO5 = Normal teacher / SH = Manager in HQ
Thank you!

If a teacher doesn't have time to interact with people outside of fraternity and is constantly surrounded by other educators, it will be good to see the world outside through TWA so as to better inform oneself of the realities outside of schools. That will shape perspectives which hopefully will impact teacher's pedagogical approaches, as well as have more impetus to impart beyond content knowledge.

But it was an enriching experience - it developed my perspectives and awareness of some things. And that may have an indirect impact on the way I teach in.future, the kinds of teaching materials I use, etc.
But there are TWA options more directly related to teaching if you are looking for something with more direct transferability back to your job. Orgs in education sector or related to your teaching subject.

Agree! I must say you're lucky to have such supportive SLs. Others that I know of would only approve of TWA during June/Nov/Dec period. Great school to be in!

It is just like how doctors advocate quitting smoking...but they themselves may smoke too. Is it a crime? Why they cannot walk the talk?
Because they are adults who made informed decisions on life choices. And it is their DUTY to educate the public about the truth on smoking. To compare that with groping/molestation or how we should let kids smoke if teachers wanna smoke...that's illogical. No link.

Telling students to behave when the teachers are not behaving. What a double standard
Walk the talk.
Students are human beings too.
