The schedule is shown in Table I. The schedules for Groups A and B in Class 2 are for teachers in junior high schools who have eligibility qualifications lower than those of senior high school teachers but higher than those of elementary-school teachers. The schedules for Groups C and D in Class 2 are for teachers in junior high schools who have eligibility qualifications corresponding to those of teachers in senior high schools. The schedules for Group B in Classes I, 2, and 3 and Group D in Class 2 are specifically provided for superior teachers.
