Teacher always on leave !

Just hoping government will give more subsidy for childcare and at the same time childcare don’t shoot up again when this happens.

Usually if the teacher has passion in teaching will not take unnecessary leaves unless is really necessary. Eg. kids sick or some home emergency. If they have children of their own, is understandable or else I can’t think of any other things which need to take frequent leave. Best is ocassionally communicate with the teacher.

Hi monster mummy, I think u got my intentions wrong. The reason y I suggested preschool to be included as formal education is so that govt can take a bigger role. It’s a fact that many preschool teachers are throwing in the towel becos of the low pay. With preschool under MOE, the teachers get a better pay n benefits. More fundings to upgrade themselves. Happier teachers = happier children. And hopefully the teachers get more recognition too. There will also be a more standardized preschools across the country. Y doesn’t ah gong wants to include preschooling as formal education? Preschool years is very essential too.

Hi,


Even though that your intention with pre-school as formal education, it will still be the same situation as primary school teacher has progressively increased in pay. But there bound to have teacher leaving service every year and does not


If i did not remember wrongly, the government has been looking at making pre-schooling a formal education. But there are no further information after that.

As now my understanding for PAP kindergarten, they encourage less writing and more play.
