Check the \"About the school\" section for the campus link and the nearest public-transport reference." }, { "q": "What qualifications are required for a PGT Geography?", "a": "Most PGT Geography roles require a relevant Bachelor's/Master's in the subject plus a B.Ed (or equivalent teacher-training qualification). Specific board requirements (CTET, IB workshops, IGCSE training) may also apply." }, { "q": "Is B.Ed mandatory for this role?", "a": "For most K-12 teaching positions a B.Ed (or NIOS D.El.Ed for primary) is preferred and often required by board affiliations; pre-primary and special-skill roles sometimes accept relevant certification in lieu. Detailed CTET/TET and eligibility rules are covered in the guide: /guides/ctet-tet-qualifications." }, { "q": "What is the salary for this PGT Geography role?", "a": "The salary band is shown in the \"Key facts\" panel above.

The appointment letter or the school's written HR policy is the authoritative source — confirm what applies before treating it as compensation." }, { "q": "Which curriculum does the school follow?", "a": "Hill Grange School follows the state-board curriculum, so teaching, assessment and reporting align to that framework." }, { "q": "What arrangements are there for women teachers' commute and safety?", "a": "Most reputable schools in Kupwara run staff transport (bus or shared cab) covering the main residential clusters, with women-first drop after evening duties. On-campus, ICC (Internal Complaints Committee) compliance is standard. Confirm the route map and the last drop time during the interview." } ] }
