SINGAPORE: From Oct 1, around 36,000 teachers and educators will get a 2 to 9 per cent increase in their monthly pay, the Ministry of Education (MOE) said on Monday (Mar 16).
The move is meant to ensure that their overall salary packages remain competitive and to enable the ministry to "continue to attract and retain good educators", said MOE in a press release.
The increment will be given to around 33,000 education officers, 1,700 allied educators and 1,100 MOE Kindergarten educators.
Salaries for education officers, allied educators and MOE Kindergarten educators were last reviewed in 2022.
