Schools consider your last-drawn CTC, teaching experience, board expertise (CBSE) and any specialist skills. Come prepared with a specific number and a 1-line justification." }, { "q": "What is the average HOD Science salary in Mumbai?", "a": "Refer to the on-page \"Salary snapshot\" for the current market band. Broadly, HOD Science pay in Mumbai rises with years of experience, board (IB > CBSE > state), and school size — the linked full pay report breaks these out further." }, { "q": "Where exactly is DAV Public School, 267-268 Sector 10 located?", "a": "The school is in Mumbai, Maharashtra. Check the \"About the school\" section for the campus link and the nearest public-transport reference." }, { "q": "What kind of professional development is offered?", "a": "Most schools run weekly/monthly in-house PD sessions on pedagogy and assessment. Funded external workshops (board-specific or subject-specific) are offered to teachers in good standing." }, { "q": "Is accommodation provided?", "a": "Day schools generally don't provide accommodation. The school may help with referrals to nearby PGs or rentals during your relocation." }, { "q": "What is the salary for this HOD Science role?", "a": "Refer to the salary range posted on this page. Most schools negotiate within this band based on your last drawn CTC and relevant experience." }, { "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.

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": "What is the leave policy?", "a": "Teaching staff typically get all school holidays plus 8–15 casual/sick leaves per academic year. Long vacations (summer, winter, Diwali, Holi breaks) follow the published school calendar." }, { "q": "What's the interview process like for this teaching role?", "a": "Most schools have 2–3 rounds: an HR call, a demo lesson, then a leadership interview. Be ready to walk through one of your lesson plans and how you handle classroom management." } ] }
