About the school: The Congregation of the Sisters of the Cross, founded in 1838, owes its origin to a humble young lady from Savoy, France, Claudine Echernier by name. Born on the 29th of May 1801, at Feternes a rural parish at Savoy, in a family richer in faith than in possessions, Claudine evinced from her young age a most astonishing thirst for knowledge and a great spiritual sensibility. Gripped by a deep personal love for Jesus Christ crucified, she responded to God’s call, after a hard life in the world, to fulfil her desire to belong entirely to God in the service of the neighbor.
Common questions about this role
Are meals provided at school?
Subsidised tea/snacks are common; full meals depend on the school. Boarding schools usually provide meals as part of the package for resident staff.
Is the salary CTC or in-hand?
Schools quote CTC by default. In-hand depends on PF (12% employee share), professional tax, and your tax slab — ask HR for a sample salary structure before accepting.
I'm serving notice — should I still apply?
Absolutely — schools regularly hire candidates on notice. Be upfront about your release date so interview scheduling and the offer timeline can be aligned.
Do I have to work weekends?
Most day schools follow a 6-day or 5.5-day week with Sundays off. Occasional Saturdays may go to events, parent meetings, or PD sessions.
Is accommodation provided?
Accommodation is not standard for day-school roles — confirm details with the Principal's office during the interview.
