Performance-linked bonuses vary by school — some pay a one-month festive bonus, others none." }, { "q": "Is accommodation provided?", "a": "Day schools generally don't provide accommodation. The school may help with referrals to nearby PGs or rentals during your relocation." }, { "q": "Can I negotiate the salary at Kamalavati Higher Secondary School?", "a": "Yes — the band shown is a starting point.
