About the school: Pragati Vidyalaya is a modest, Marathi-medium aided school focusing on foundational education for primary grades. With a small team, basic facilities (library, computers, ramps), and community orientation, it serves local needs but may lack the sparkle of more tech-rich or extracurricular-driven institutions. If you're seeking an affordable neighborhood school for early education, it's a practical option. For higher academic ambitions or extracurricular variety, you might compare it against schools like Elpro, Silver Crest, or Sanskar nearby.
Common questions about this role
What is the leave policy?
Teaching staff typically get all school holidays plus 8–15 casual/sick leaves per academic year. Long vacations (summer, winter, Diwali, Holi breaks) follow the published school calendar.
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.
How long does it take to hear back after applying?
Response times vary, but shortlisted candidates are typically contacted within a week. You'll get a notification on School Jobs India the moment the school updates your application status.
What kind of professional development is offered?
Most schools run weekly/monthly in-house PD sessions on pedagogy and assessment. Funded external workshops (board-specific or subject-specific) are offered to teachers in good standing.
When does the school want the joining date to be?
Joining dates are usually negotiable around the school calendar. Mid-term joining is common for replacement vacancies; new positions often align to April or the start of the next term.
