Interview questions & answers for PGT Political Science
Common questions Indian schools ask for PGT Political Science roles in Lucknow (CBSE panel) — with a short sample answer for each so you can walk in prepared.
1. How should I discuss my notice period and joining date?
Be upfront and specific: last working day at current school, earliest realistic joining date, and any flexibility (early release, unpaid leave). Schools plan around academic calendars — a clear date wins over vague "as soon as possible".
2. How would you handle a difficult parent meeting?
Listen first, restate the concern, share data (assessment scores, work samples, incident notes), then propose two next steps with a follow-up date. Emphasise you'd loop in the coordinator/HOD for anything unresolved — schools want partnership, not solo heroics.
3. Why did you choose teaching as a career?
Anchor it in a specific moment — a mentor, a classroom win, or an impact story on a student. Panels want authenticity plus a link to the future ("that's why I want to work with Grade X at your school"), not a scripted "I love kids" answer.
4. What questions should I ask at the end?
Ask three: one about the team (department size, coordinator style), one about growth (PD budget, appraisal cadence), and one about the school (a specific programme). Avoid opening with leave/salary questions unless the panel invites them.
5. Will I need to submit a sample lesson plan?
Assume yes — most CBSE schools ask for one alongside the demo. Structure it as: objective → prior knowledge check → input (10 min) → guided practice → independent task → plenary. Include differentiation notes and one assessment prompt.
6. Why do you want to work at Jagran Public School?
Show you've done the homework: reference the CBSE curriculum, the Lucknow campus, and one specific programme or value from their website. Tie it to what you bring — pedagogy, subject expertise or a co-curricular strength.
