Verbal confirmations sometimes come sooner — always wait for the written offer before resigning your current role." }, { "q": "Is this a fixed-term or open-ended contract?", "a": "The employment type is shown in the Key Facts section above. Fixed-term roles usually align to the academic year; permanent roles are open-ended after probation. The final letter will spell out renewal and exit terms." }, { "q": "Is there a probation period?", "a": "Most schools run a 3–6 month probation with the same salary as confirmation. Confirmation is typically subject to satisfactory performance reviews and document verification." }, { "q": "What is the average Principal salary in Bengaluru?", "a": "Refer to the on-page \"Salary snapshot\" for the current market band.

In-hand is lower than CTC once employee PF (12% of basic, capped at ₹15,000 basic/month), professional tax and — where applicable — income tax under the new regime are deducted.

Set up a job alert for similar roles so you don't miss the next match if this one doesn't move forward." }, { "q": "Are detailed lesson plans expected?", "a": "Schools generally require lesson plans aligned to the syllabus and pacing calendar. Coordinators review them weekly or fortnightly." }, { "q": "Which curriculum does the school follow?", "a": "Cambridge Pre-University College follows the state-board curriculum, so teaching, assessment and reporting align to that framework." } ] }
