City tier and board affiliation move the number materially — IB and Cambridge schools sit at the top of the range, state-board private schools at the base." }, { "q": "Which curriculum does the school follow?", "a": "Joseph Vidhyakshetra follows the CBSE curriculum, so teaching, assessment and reporting align to that framework." }, { "q": "Is there a probation period?", "a": "Yes — a 3 to 6 month probation is standard in K-12 schools across India. Benefits like PF and gratuity continue to accrue from day one regardless." } ] }
