Turn on job alerts for the same role in the same city so you don't lose momentum if this one pauses." }, { "q": "How big are the classes?", "a": "Section sizes typically range from 25 to 40 students. The school will confirm exact section size during the interview based on the grade you'll teach." }, { "q": "What non-teaching duties are expected?", "a": "Common non-teaching duties include exam invigilation, homework correction, parent-teacher meetings, one co-curricular activity, and being a homeroom/tutor-group mentor." }, { "q": "I'm serving notice — should I still apply?", "a": "Yes.

Fixed-term roles usually align to the academic year; permanent roles are open-ended after probation.

Specifics are spelled out in the offer letter." }, { "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." } ] }
