Common questions about this role
What qualifications are required for a Principal?

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.

What non-teaching duties are expected?
Beyond teaching periods you'll typically own a homeroom, run one club/activity, support exam logistics, and contribute to one school-wide initiative each term.
Which curriculum does the school follow?
Nalanda Public School follows the CBSE curriculum, so teaching, assessment and reporting align to that framework.
