Some boards also ask for a written response or a sample lesson plan." }, { "q": "Is this a fixed-term or open-ended contract?", "a": "This is a contract engagement — the offer letter will state the duration and renewal terms.

Check the \"About the school\" section for the campus link and the nearest public-transport reference." }, { "q": "Can I negotiate the salary at Podar International School?", "a": "Most schools have a defined band per role but the final number is negotiable within it. The strongest levers are recent teaching experience, board expertise, and willingness to take on coordinator/extra-curricular responsibilities." } ] }
