Common questions Indian schools ask for Nursery Teacher roles in Chandigarh (CBSE panel) — with a short sample answer for each so you can walk in prepared.

Be upfront and specific: last working day at current school, earliest realistic joining date, and any flexibility (early release, unpaid leave). Schools plan around academic calendars — a clear date wins over vague "as soon as possible".
4. Tell me about yourself — how should I frame my self-introduction?

Avoid your personal life — schools evaluate structure and clarity here.
5. How should I answer the salary expectation question?
Give a range, not a single number. Anchor on the typical Nursery Teacher band in Chandigarh (see the Salary snapshot on this page) plus a 10-15% premium for your experience. Say you're open to discussion once the role scope is confirmed.
