Common non-teaching duties include exam invigilation, homework correction, parent-teacher meetings, one co-curricular activity, and being a homeroom/tutor-group mentor.
Which curriculum does the school follow?
Govt.high School Lekir follows the CBSE curriculum, so teaching, assessment and reporting align to that framework.

Staff transport varies. Larger schools with their own fleet usually allow staff onboarding on existing routes; smaller schools may not run dedicated routes.
