Mid-term joining is common for replacement vacancies; new positions often align to April or the start of the next term." }, { "q": "How big are the classes?", "a": "Section sizes typically range from 25 to 40 students. The school will confirm exact section size during the interview based on the grade you'll teach." }, { "q": "When are increments and bonuses given?", "a": "Annual increments are usually announced in March/April, alongside the new academic year. Performance-linked bonuses vary by school — some pay a one-month festive bonus, others none." }, { "q": "Can I negotiate the salary at SGM Public School?", "a": "Yes — the band shown is a starting point.
