Common questions about this role
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.
Is there a probation period?
Yes — a 3 to 6 month probation is standard in K-12 schools across India. Benefits like PF and gratuity continue to accrue from day one regardless.
Which curriculum does the school follow?
Government Secondary School, Lingcheg follows the CBSE curriculum, so teaching, assessment and reporting align to that framework.
What non-teaching duties are expected?
