I am looking at moving to Singapore next year and am currently looking for primary level teaching jobs in International Schools. Many of them ask what your salary expectations are. All of the ones I have seen to date talk about accommodation,flights home, relocation allowances etc as part of the package. However, despite searching though the forums here, I can't find any recent information about expected salary.
Clearly, from what I have read, it is dependent on a number of key points so this is my situation:
I am seeking full time employment in an International School as a primary teacher. I will be bringing one dependent of primary school age (I am single). I am currently in a leadership role and will have 14 years teaching experience by next year. I have my Bachelor's degree in education. Although I have not taught in an international school before, my current position is in a private special character school. I have excellent references and am experienced in the use of ICTs, including training other teachers, as well as ESOL.
I really just need a ball park figure of what to put down for expected salary. I don't think comparing directly with my NZ salary will help me much as the tax and cost of living is going to mean I am comparing apples with oranges.
Any idea on a reasonable expectation of salary given my experience would be most appreciated. I have checked out the internet in general and this forum extensively but most is either too old to be useful or the situation too different from my own. Thanks for your help.
