Which curriculum does the school follow?
Don Bosco Girls College follows the CBSE curriculum, so teaching, assessment and reporting align to that framework.
Can I negotiate the salary at Don Bosco Girls College?

What non-teaching duties are expected?
Beyond teaching periods you'll typically own a homeroom, run one club/activity, support exam logistics, and contribute to one school-wide initiative each term.
Do staff get fee concession for their children?
Many established schools offer 50–100% tuition concession for the children of full-time staff, subject to admission criteria. Confirm specifics in the offer letter.
How will I know if my application is being reviewed?

Is school transport available for staff?
