Specifics are spelled out in the offer letter." }, { "q": "Is B.Ed mandatory for this role?", "a": "For most K-12 teaching positions a B.Ed (or NIOS D.El.Ed for primary) is preferred and often required by board affiliations; pre-primary and special-skill roles sometimes accept relevant certification in lieu.

The appointment letter or the school's written HR policy is the authoritative source — confirm what applies before treating it as compensation." }, { "q": "Is there a probation period?", "a": "Most schools run a 3–6 month probation with the same salary as confirmation. Confirmation is typically subject to satisfactory performance reviews and document verification." }, { "q": "How big are the classes?", "a": "Section sizes typically range from 25 to 40 students.
