Be upfront about your release date so interview scheduling and the offer timeline can be aligned." }, { "q": "Where exactly is Happy Child International School located?", "a": "The school is in Sonipat, Haryana. Check the \"About the school\" section for the campus link and the nearest public-transport reference." }, { "q": "What is the average HOD Humanities salary in Sonipat?", "a": "Check the \"Salary snapshot\" section above for the entry / typical / senior band tailored to HOD Humanities roles in Sonipat.

Earned-leave encashment policies vary — check the offer letter." }, { "q": "Are meals provided at school?", "a": "Subsidised tea/snacks are common; full meals depend on the school. Boarding schools usually provide meals as part of the package for resident staff." }, { "q": "Will I get PF and statutory benefits?", "a": "Most registered schools enrol staff in EPF from day one and pay statutory gratuity.
