Does Marygiri Public School help with relocation from another city?

Do I have to work weekends?
Standard week is Monday to Saturday (often half-day Saturday). Occasional event Sundays exist (Annual Day, Sports Day, admissions test days) and are usually compensated with a comp-off.
What is the salary for this HOD Humanities role?
