for JCs, it’s an internal deployment. they usually go for their normal subjects eg maths , physics and when they school needs they ask ard who wants to do it. i believe they then attend course.

Not everyone who is burned out dealing with students who are unmotivated despite endless encouragements, wants students who are high progress. It’s just human to feel that burnout when even students with potential are burning out from commitments like cca and other non-IP things. It’s sadder when fellow educators judge others instead of supporting one another, by taking moral high ground and criticise them like how you did.
I have zero problem teaching low progress learners who are keen to make a difference to their life but still constantly fail in exam or WA. There have always been challenging family backgrounds in ANY era. But some kids these days are just waiting to be spoonfed and ready to blame their current and past teachers for their failings instead of looking inwards at how they can do better. Kids 10 years ago are more willing to reflect on themselves and push on despite setbacks.
I can teach the content, but i cannot replace their parents for taking that resilience out of them. Coming from challenging background does not equate to being challenging kids to teach. Poor learning attitude can be a combination of external factors that teachers cannot easily influence. Show me you have made that difference to 50 unmotivated kids in a year and we’ll talk.

soon, one or two outliers who’s able to practice ‘flexible’ working arrangement in their schools will be showcased to the media and public, and then everyone will be ‘ohh yes got wfh, just that you choose not to, or you need to manage your time well etc’
the truth is that teachers are ‘frontline uniform group workers’, similar to police, nurses etc. exception would the the HQ officers who’re still enjoying (2days?) wfh. i stand corrected.

Who is part of the ranking panel for SH/AYH? Is it just the SLs or it also includes HODs?
