What is the average HOD Humanities salary in Barmer?
Refer to the on-page "Salary snapshot" for the current market band. Broadly, HOD Humanities pay in Barmer varies with years of experience (each 3-year block adds roughly 15-25%), board (IB > CBSE > state), and school size — the linked full pay report breaks these out further.
Which curriculum does the school follow?
PM SHRI School Jawahar Navodaya Vidyalaya follows the CBSE curriculum, so teaching, assessment and reporting align to that framework.
What questions are asked in a HOD Humanities interview?
Panels usually ask about your teaching philosophy, a demo lesson walkthrough, how you handle discipline and parents, and syllabus familiarity. See the "Interview questions & answers" section on this page for six of the most common ones and how to answer them.
Will I get PF and statutory benefits?
Yes — established schools provide EPF (Provident Fund) and gratuity (after 5 years), and most also provide ESI for staff under the wage threshold. Specifics are spelled out in the offer letter.

When are increments and bonuses given?
Annual increments are usually announced in March/April, alongside the new academic year. Performance-linked bonuses vary by school — some pay a one-month festive bonus, others none.
