    An opportunity to learn
    The good things1.Management listens and respect your decision 2 Motivating and welcoming principals 3.Lots of opportunities to groom yourself professionally 4.Proper working protocol and guidelines 5.Organized work filing and record system 6.Effective administration 7. Most of the colleagues are friendly and helpful. They mind their own business 8. Respectable establishment.
    The challenges1.School needs to hire more qualified teachers (BEd or MEd) and teacher trainers who are competent in the subject/field that they are teaching/training instead of just filling in the gap 2. Micromanagement at some levels and tend to be rigid 3. School definitely needs a standardised discipline board to look into students' discipline matters 4. Lack of teaching resources 5. Excessive absenteeism among a small number of staff that affects the working environment

    Not a place to grow your career
    The good thingsGenerous colleagues who support you when others (your HOD) won't. Parents are reasonable
    The challengesNeed to support urgent and last minute job assigned Focus daily is covering your back from thick politics and satisfying the needs of people micromanaging your work. Lack of proper support and training. Switching teachers and subjects without any notice

    Great leaders
    The good thingsAwesome bosses; also leaders by example, high respect from top managent, open office policy, freedom of speech, freedom of practice, very supportive superiors. Good welfare (free breakies and lunches, free fruits for staffs)
