Why join us as a Teacher?
A positive impact, in your own way.
Teachers are champions of emerging fields and meaningful causes. Infuse your passion and personal interests into your lessons. Whether it is leveraging technology to craft engaging and inventive learning experiences for students, or nurturing social and environmental consciousness through class-based or school-wide initiatives, you shape and influence students' learning in your own way.
Structured career pathways, catered to your aspirations.
As you progress in your career in the Education Service, you may have a different aspiration from your fellow teachers. As such, the Ministry has three career tracks for you to develop and progress along different fields of excellence, namely the Teaching, School Leadership and Senior Specialist Track. Find out more here.
Furthermore, the professional development opportunities and career pathways within the ministry are diverse, catering to your needs and passions. There are opportunities for you to take on new roles, such as cross-level deployment e.g. Secondary school to Primary school transfer, or lateral transfer to an adjacent role, e.g., from a Teacher to a School or Education and Career Guidance Counsellor (ECGC).
Dynamic and evolving profession, nurturing your growth and development.
Teaching is a dynamic and ever-evolving profession that stands the test of time, brimming with opportunities for personal and professional growth. We provide a wealth of opportunities for you to acquire new knowledge, transferable skills and core competencies both within and outside of the classroom, recognising and rewarding those who commit to the profession for the long term.
