Job description
Overview
Army Public School in Gaya, Bihar is on the lookout for a PGT Political Science. The school values educators who care about classroom culture as much as curriculum delivery. Army Public School, established 2014, runs as a senior secondary campus in Gaya, Bihar — a CBSE-affiliated school. The school believes a strong campus is built on its teachers and works to be a place where faculty want to stay. Role: as PGT Political Science, you own day-to-day classroom delivery for the assigned grades and sections — lesson planning, teaching, assessment design, and student feedback within the school's academic framework. Core responsibilities:
- Teach assigned classes per the published timetable.
- Plan units, lessons, and assessments using school templates.
- Track attendance, performance, and behaviour; act on early warnings.
- Engage with parents through structured PTMs and informal check-ins.
- Take part in the school's PD calendar and observation cycles. Ideal candidate — you have:
- A strong academic background in the subject and a teaching qualification.
- Prior classroom experience at the relevant grade level.
- Patience, clarity, and a calm approach to classroom situations.
- Grade-appropriate written and spoken English.
- The discipline to plan, document, and review your own teaching. Why join us:
- Predictable, on-time monthly compensation (₹4.0 LPA – ₹6.9 LPA).
- Reasonable workload with planned holidays per the calendar.
- Real ownership of your subject/function from day one.
- A leadership team that listens, supports, and gives credit.
- A campus that respects educators as professionals. Submit your application on this page and Army Public School will weigh your candidacy for the opening. Next steps usually include a short demo class and a panel discussion.

Interview questions & answers for PGT Political Science
Common questions Indian schools ask for PGT Political Science roles in Gaya (CBSE panel) — with a short sample answer for each so you can walk in prepared.
1. How should I answer the salary expectation question?
Give a range, not a single number. Anchor on the typical PGT Political Science band in Gaya (see the Salary snapshot on this page) plus a 10-15% premium for your experience. Say you're open to discussion once the role scope is confirmed.
2. How well do I need to know the CBSE syllabus?
Panels will probe unit-level familiarity. Skim the current CBSE scheme of work for your subject and grade, memorise two chapter names you'd be strongest teaching, and be ready to walk through the assessment pattern (weightings, project component, exam duration).
3. How would you handle a difficult parent meeting?
Listen first, restate the concern, share data (assessment scores, work samples, incident notes), then propose two next steps with a follow-up date. Emphasise you'd loop in the coordinator/HOD for anything unresolved — schools want partnership, not solo heroics.
4. Will I need to submit a sample lesson plan?
Assume yes — most CBSE schools ask for one alongside the demo. Structure it as: objective → prior knowledge check → input (10 min) → guided practice → independent task → plenary. Include differentiation notes and one assessment prompt.
5. Why do you want to work at Army Public School?
Show you've done the homework: reference the CBSE curriculum, the Gaya campus, and one specific programme or value from their website. Tie it to what you bring — pedagogy, subject expertise or a co-curricular strength.
6. Tell me about yourself — how should I frame my self-introduction?
Keep it 60-90 seconds: start with your name and current role, then two or three highlights that map to the PGT Political Science brief (qualifications, subject/level, standout achievement), and close with why Army Public School in particular. Avoid your personal life — schools evaluate structure and clarity here.
