You won't find a school that is willing to specify taxation/pension deduction amounts, as this is subject to change; both amounts were raised during my time here, due to government mandate and the fact that I got a raise.
Use common sense...I am finding that a lot of people we interview at our school are becoming quite paranoid about 'getting screwed', and this paranoia does not make a candidate a very attractive hire. Do your research, and unless you have any good evidence against the school, why not assume that there is good faith, and trust that your own maturity, professionalism and good judgement will be able to resolve MOST problems? As others have pointed out, the contract is not as important as the experience of others at the school. I wouldn't change anything in our contract for a new hire; why should we do that when we have so many teachers that work under it with no problems whatsoever? |
Because at some point you might be losing out on prospective teachers. If you wording in poor, why not consider changing it? Maybe it's for one teacher, but from that point on you could make that the standard contract.
dimnd you really should not be giving out this kind of advice. It is incorrect and dangerous.

Anyone reading this chould contact the Immigration office and ask them directly. This advice is false, but don't take it from me, ask the Immi people. |
