Yes — a 3 to 6 month probation is standard in K-12 schools across India. Benefits like PF and gratuity continue to accrue from day one regardless.

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.

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.

Interview questions & answers for Wing Head - Primary
Common questions Indian schools ask for Wing Head - Primary roles in New Delhi (CBSE panel) — with a short sample answer for each so you can walk in prepared.
1. Why do you want to work at Mira Model SR SEC School?
Show you've done the homework: reference the CBSE curriculum, the New Delhi campus, and one specific programme or value from their website. Tie it to what you bring — pedagogy, subject expertise or a co-curricular strength.
2. What experience is most relevant to a Wing Head - Primary role at a school?
Lead with prior school or education-sector experience if you have it. If not, translate transferable skills (safeguarding awareness, working with minors, compliance, shift discipline) into school-specific scenarios — Mira Model SR SEC School wants to picture you on day one.
3. 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".
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. What is your greatest strength and weakness as an educator?
Pick a strength tied to student outcomes with one metric or story. For weakness, name a real one, follow it with the concrete steps you're taking (workshop, mentor, changed practice) — panels reject rehearsed non-answers like "I work too hard".
6. How should I answer the salary expectation question?
Give a range, not a single number. Anchor on the typical Wing Head - Primary band in New Delhi (see the Salary snapshot on this page) plus a 10-15% premium for your experience. Say you're open to discussion once the role scope is confirmed.
