Some boards also ask for a written response or a sample lesson plan." }, { "q": "What is the average HOD English salary in Patna?", "a": "Check the \"Salary snapshot\" section above for the entry / typical / senior band tailored to HOD English roles in Patna.

Availability depends on whether your home is near a school route — confirm with HR." }, { "q": "Which curriculum does the school follow?", "a": "Delhi Public School Patna East follows the CBSE curriculum, so teaching, assessment and reporting align to that framework." }, { "q": "Is the salary CTC or in-hand?", "a": "Most Indian schools quote annual CTC. In-hand is lower than CTC once employee PF (12% of basic, capped at ₹15,000 basic/month), professional tax and — where applicable — income tax under the new regime are deducted. Plug the offered CTC into the in-hand salary calculator at /tools/in-hand-salary-calculator for a line-by-line breakdown against this job." }, { "q": "What arrangements are there for women teachers' commute and safety?", "a": "Most reputable schools in Patna run staff transport (bus or shared cab) covering the main residential clusters, with women-first drop after evening duties.

Confirm the route map and the last drop time during the interview." }, { "q": "When does the school want the joining date to be?", "a": "Most school roles aim for a joining around the start of the next academic month or term. Once shortlisted, the school will agree a realistic date based on your notice period." }, { "q": "What non-teaching duties are expected?", "a": "Beyond teaching periods you'll typically own a homeroom, run one club/activity, support exam logistics, and contribute to one school-wide initiative each term." }, { "q": "What is the salary for this HOD English role?", "a": "The salary band is shown in the \"Key facts\" panel above. Final offers depend on your years of experience, qualifications and the interview outcome." }, { "q": "How long after the interview until I get an offer letter?", "a": "Most schools issue a written offer within 3–7 working days of the final round. If you don't hear back in 10 days, a quick polite follow-up via the \"Message employer\" button on this HOD English listing is usually welcome." } ] }
