Common questions about this role
Are meals provided at school?
Subsidised tea/snacks are common; full meals depend on the school. Boarding schools usually provide meals as part of the package for resident staff.
Is English fluency required?
Yes — instruction is in English at most CBSE schools. Comfortable English communication for classroom delivery and parent meetings is expected.
Which curriculum does the school follow?
Eklavya Model Residential School Parda Chundawat follows the CBSE curriculum, so teaching, assessment and reporting align to that framework.
Is the salary CTC or in-hand?
Schools quote CTC by default. In-hand depends on PF (12% employee share), professional tax, and your tax slab — ask HR for a sample salary structure before accepting.
Do I have to work weekends?
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.
How long does it take to hear back after applying?

Interview questions & answers for Principal
Common questions Indian schools ask for Principal roles in Dungarpur (CBSE panel) — with a short sample answer for each so you can walk in prepared.
1. Why do you want to work at Eklavya Model Residential School Parda Chundawat?
Show you've done the homework: reference the CBSE curriculum, the Dungarpur campus, and one specific programme or value from their website. Tie it to what you bring — pedagogy, subject expertise or a co-curricular strength.
2. What is your vision for improving academic outcomes in a CBSE school?
Frame it as three horizons: 100-day audit of teaching quality + assessment data, one-year focus on 2-3 subject departments' pedagogy, three-year plan for co-curricular breadth and university outcomes. Anchor each in CBSE benchmarks.
3. What questions should I ask at the end?
Ask three: one about the team (department size, coordinator style), one about growth (PD budget, appraisal cadence), and one about the school (a specific programme). Avoid opening with leave/salary questions unless the panel invites them.
4. Why did you choose teaching as a career?
Anchor it in a specific moment — a mentor, a classroom win, or an impact story on a student. Panels want authenticity plus a link to the future ("that's why I want to work with Grade X at your school"), not a scripted "I love kids" answer.
5. How should I prepare for the demo lesson?
Plan a 20-25 minute segment aligned to the CBSE curriculum for the exact grade the school specifies. Include a clear objective, 2-3 questioning prompts, a short activity, and a closing check-for-understanding. Bring a printed lesson plan for the observer.
6. How do you develop and mentor teachers on your team?
Describe a structured cycle: goal-setting → learning walks → post-observation coaching → one PD focus per term. Mention how you'd differentiate between an early-career teacher and a mid-career specialist — leaders are hired on their systems, not their opinions.
