Saturdays vary by school." }, { "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 English fluency required?", "a": "Yes — instruction is in English at most CBSE schools. Comfortable English communication for classroom delivery and parent meetings is expected." }, { "q": "Is school transport available for staff?", "a": "Many schools offer staff bus service on their main routes, either free or at a nominal fee. Availability depends on whether your home is near a school route — confirm with HR." }, { "q": "What is the salary for this HOD Languages role?", "a": "The salary band is shown in the \"Key facts\" panel above. Final offers depend on your years of experience, qualifications and the interview outcome." }, { "q": "What qualifications are required for a HOD Languages?", "a": "Most HOD Languages roles require a relevant Bachelor's/Master's in the subject plus a B.Ed (or equivalent teacher-training qualification).

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.
