Verbal confirmations sometimes come sooner — always wait for the written offer before resigning your current role." }, { "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." }, { "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": "Is school transport available for staff?", "a": "Staff transport varies. Larger schools with their own fleet usually allow staff onboarding on existing routes; smaller schools may not run dedicated routes." }, { "q": "How do I write an application email for this HOD Science role?", "a": "A ready template with subject line, three-paragraph structure and attachment checklist (with a \"HOD Science — Kids International School\" subject-line example) is in the guide: /guides/teacher-application-letter." }, { "q": "I'm serving notice — should I still apply?", "a": "Yes.

Come prepared with a specific number and a 1-line justification." }, { "q": "How long does it take to hear back after applying?", "a": "Most schools review applications within 5–10 working days.
