- Track record of leading improvement at section or school level.
- Hiring, coaching, performance management, and conflict resolution skills.

Which curriculum does the school follow?
Bhagirathi Vidyalaya follows the CBSE curriculum, so teaching, assessment and reporting align to that framework.
I'm serving notice — should I still apply?

Are detailed lesson plans expected?
Most schools expect weekly lesson plans submitted to the coordinator/HOD, plus unit plans at the start of each term. Templates are usually provided.
Is background verification done before joining?
Standard pre-joining checks cover qualification documents, prior employment, and reference calls. Some larger groups also do criminal-record verification.
Is B.Ed mandatory for this role?
For most K-12 teaching positions in India a B.Ed (or NIOS D.El.Ed for primary) is preferred and often required by board affiliations. Some pre-primary and special-skill roles accept relevant certification in lieu.
Can I negotiate the salary at Bhagirathi Vidyalaya?
