Comfortable English communication for classroom delivery and parent meetings is expected." }, { "q": "Which curriculum does the school follow?", "a": "Dayanand Public School follows the CBSE curriculum, so teaching, assessment and reporting align to that framework." }, { "q": "Can I negotiate the salary at Dayanand Public School?", "a": "Most schools have a defined band per role but the final number is negotiable within it.

Detailed CTET/TET and eligibility rules are covered in the guide: /guides/ctet-tet-qualifications." }, { "q": "How big are the classes?", "a": "Class sizes in Indian K-12 schools usually fall in the 25–40 student range.

On-campus, ICC (Internal Complaints Committee) compliance is standard. Confirm the route map and the last drop time during the interview." }, { "q": "Do staff get fee concession for their children?", "a": "Many schools offer a tuition-fee concession for the children of full-time staff, subject to admission criteria and available seats. The appointment letter or the school's written HR policy is the authoritative source — confirm what applies before treating it as compensation." } ] }
