Saturdays vary by school." }, { "q": "What arrangements are there for women teachers' commute and safety?", "a": "Most reputable schools in Gandhinagar run staff transport (bus or shared cab) covering the main residential clusters, with women-first drop after evening duties. On-campus, ICC (Internal Complaints Committee) compliance is standard. Confirm the route map and the last drop time during the interview." }, { "q": "Is this a fixed-term or open-ended contract?", "a": "Most permanent teaching roles in Indian K-12 schools are open-ended after a 3–6 month probation. The offer letter you receive will state the exact terms, including probation, notice period and confirmation criteria." }, { "q": "How will I know if my application is being reviewed?", "a": "You'll get a status notification on School Jobs India (and by email) each time the school updates your application — Shortlisted, Interviewing, Offered or Not selected.

ESI cover applies if your gross is within the eligibility limit at joining." }, { "q": "Is the salary CTC or in-hand?", "a": "Most Indian schools quote annual CTC. 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. Plug the offered CTC into the in-hand salary calculator at /tools/in-hand-salary-calculator for a line-by-line breakdown against this job." }, { "q": "Is background verification done before joining?", "a": "Standard pre-joining checks cover qualification documents, prior employment, and reference calls.
