Be ready to walk through one of your lesson plans and how you handle classroom management." }, { "q": "How will I know if my application is being reviewed?", "a": "Every status change (viewed, shortlisted, interview scheduled, offered) is pushed to your dashboard and email. Turn on job alerts for the same role in the same city so you don't lose momentum if this one pauses." }, { "q": "What is the leave policy?", "a": "Teaching staff typically get all school holidays plus 8–15 casual/sick leaves per academic year. Long vacations (summer, winter, Diwali, Holi breaks) follow the published school calendar." }, { "q": "What arrangements are there for women teachers' commute and safety?", "a": "Staff transport with defined pickup points, a women-first evening drop policy, CCTV coverage in corridors and staff areas, and an active Internal Complaints Committee are the norm at most established Indian schools. Ask HR for the specific route serving your locality." }, { "q": "Which curriculum does the school follow?", "a": "Jayapriya Public School follows the CBSE curriculum, so teaching, assessment and reporting align to that framework." }, { "q": "When does the school want the joining date to be?", "a": "Joining dates are usually negotiable around the school calendar. Mid-term joining is common for replacement vacancies; new positions often align to April or the start of the next term." }, { "q": "How do I write an application email for this HOD Humanities role?", "a": "A ready template with subject line, three-paragraph structure and attachment checklist (with a \"HOD Humanities — Jayapriya Public School\" subject-line example) is in the guide: /guides/teacher-application-letter." }, { "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": "Do staff get fee concession for their children?", "a": "Many schools offer a tuition-fee concession for the children of full-time staff, subject to admission criteria and available seats. The appointment letter or the school's written HR policy is the authoritative source — confirm what applies before treating it as compensation." }, { "q": "Is background verification done before joining?", "a": "Yes — most schools run document and reference verification, and many use third-party background checks. Keep your last 2–3 employer references and original certificates ready." } ] }
