Is B.Ed mandatory for this role?

Is there a probation period?

Interview questions & answers for PGT Economics
Common questions Indian schools ask for PGT Economics roles in Chittoor (CBSE panel) — with a short sample answer for each so you can walk in prepared.
1. 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.
2. What is your greatest strength and weakness as an educator?
Pick a strength tied to student outcomes with one metric or story. For weakness, name a real one, follow it with the concrete steps you're taking (workshop, mentor, changed practice) — panels reject rehearsed non-answers like "I work too hard".
3. How should I answer the salary expectation question?
Give a range, not a single number. Anchor on the typical PGT Economics band in Chittoor (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.
4. How do you differentiate for mixed-ability classrooms?
Give a concrete example — tiered worksheets, flexible groupings, scaffolded reading. Reference formative assessment (exit tickets, mini-whiteboards) as how you decide which students need what, and how you record progress against CBSE learning outcomes.
5. How should I discuss my notice period and joining date?
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".
6. 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.
