Detailed CTET/TET and eligibility rules are covered in the guide: /guides/ctet-tet-qualifications." }, { "q": "How do I write an application email for this HOD English role?", "a": "A ready template with subject line, three-paragraph structure and attachment checklist (with a \"HOD English — Surya Public School\" subject-line example) is in the guide: /guides/teacher-application-letter." }, { "q": "Are detailed lesson plans expected?", "a": "Schools generally require lesson plans aligned to the syllabus and pacing calendar. Coordinators review them weekly or fortnightly." }, { "q": "What does a typical day look like?", "a": "Most teachers handle 4–6 instructional periods a day, with the rest going to lesson planning, assessment correction, and a co-curricular duty." }, { "q": "Which curriculum does the school follow?", "a": "Surya Public School follows the CBSE curriculum, so teaching, assessment and reporting align to that framework." }, { "q": "Will I get PF and statutory benefits?", "a": "Yes — established schools provide EPF (Provident Fund) and gratuity (after 5 years), and most also provide ESI for staff under the wage threshold. Specifics are spelled out in the offer letter." }, { "q": "What qualifications are required for a HOD English?", "a": "Most HOD English roles require a relevant Bachelor's/Master's in the subject plus a B.Ed (or equivalent teacher-training qualification). Specific board requirements (CTET, IB workshops, IGCSE training) may also apply." }, { "q": "Do I have to work weekends?", "a": "Standard week is Monday to Saturday (often half-day Saturday). Occasional event Sundays exist (Annual Day, Sports Day, admissions test days) and are usually compensated with a comp-off." }, { "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": "How long does it take to hear back after applying?", "a": "Response times vary, but shortlisted candidates are typically contacted within a week. You'll get a notification on School Jobs India the moment the school updates your application status." } ] }
