Bonus structure depends on the school — confirm in writing before accepting the offer." }, { "q": "Do I have to work weekends?", "a": "Most day schools follow a 6-day or 5.5-day week with Sundays off. Occasional Saturdays may go to events, parent meetings, or PD sessions." }, { "q": "What is the average Accountant salary in Kottayam?", "a": "Check the \"Salary snapshot\" section above for the entry / typical / senior band tailored to Accountant roles in Kottayam.
