The strongest levers are recent teaching experience, board expertise, and willingness to take on coordinator/extra-curricular responsibilities." }, { "q": "Do I have to work weekends?", "a": "Most day schools follow a 6-day or 5.5-day week with Sundays off. Occasional Saturdays may go to events, parent meetings, or PD sessions." }, { "q": "What arrangements are there for women teachers' commute and safety?", "a": "Most reputable schools in Muzaffarnagar run staff transport (bus or shared cab) covering the main residential clusters, with women-first drop after evening duties.

The appointment letter or the school's written HR policy is the authoritative source — confirm what applies before treating it as compensation." }, { "q": "Is there a probation period?", "a": "Yes — a 3 to 6 month probation is standard in K-12 schools across India. Benefits like PF and gratuity continue to accrue from day one regardless." }, { "q": "Where exactly is Royal Academy located?", "a": "The school is in Muzaffarnagar, Uttar Pradesh.
