Specific board requirements (CTET, IB workshops, IGCSE training) may also apply." }, { "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": "Where can I find similar vacancies?", "a": "Scroll to the \"Similar jobs\" section below to see related openings. You can also browse by city (Balaghat), role and board on School Jobs India to compare options side by side." }, { "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." }, { "q": "Can I negotiate the salary at Vaidik Convent Higher Secondary School?", "a": "Yes — the band shown is a starting point.
