From 2022 to 2024. Each cohort has a mix of fresh graduates and mid-career individuals. Teachers are the influencers of every generation, Mr Lee added. "While technology and AI (artificial intelligence) can enhance teaching and learning, it can never replace what you bring to the classroom — your knowledge, experience and care for your students."

He said MOE will support teachers in three key areas: growing professional capabilities, attracting diverse talent, and partnering stakeholders and the community.

The ministry will provide teachers with opportunities to keep updated on developments in their subject areas and in the field of education.

Educators can also go on stints beyond the education context, such as through the Teacher Work Attachment Plus programme. Since its introduction in 2022, teachers have joined 3,800 learning journeys and 700 work attachments.

"Whether through learning journeys or short-term work attachments, you can step out of your classrooms to gain fresh perspectives and understand the latest developments across various industries. You then bring valuable real-world insights back to your students and colleagues," said Mr Lee.
