What kind of menu does the school kitchen run?
Menus are planned in advance with the school administration, focused on hygienic, balanced meals for students and staff. Special diets are accommodated where possible.

Most registered schools enrol staff in EPF from day one and pay statutory gratuity. ESI cover applies if your gross is within the eligibility limit at joining.
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.
Are meals provided at school?
