just read an article carried by TRS, was about a former teacher leaving the service only to come back as an adjunct teacher. did a lil' read up and found out that contract-adjunct and flexi-adjunct schemes are available. the TRS article reflected that the adjunct teacher need not cover things like CCA, whereas the MOE site states that these adjunct teachers may be assigned CCA based on school needs.
in the past, CCAs were in fact ECAs. what happened?

The shit remains and accumulates making it ever more unbearable for the good ones, forcing more good ones to quit. It is a vicious cycle.

can't help but lament that we are mere economic digits... where everything in this system to the MIW is nothing but ROI...

The change in terminology was made to reflect the concept of "holistic education" ie. to show that performance in CCAs are just as important as academic results. That's why the "Co-" instead of the "Extra-" as in the past. But truth be told, it is all just another load of typical MOE crap. The only thing the change achieved was more stress all around for students and teachers when schools now put as much emphasis on chasing CCA awards as they do on academic achievements. Bottom line - now everything also must be kilat!
