The final letter will spell out renewal and exit terms." }, { "q": "How long after the interview until I get an offer letter?", "a": "Typically 3–7 working days after the final interview, once reference checks and internal approvals are done.

Ask HR for the specific route serving your locality." }, { "q": "What kind of professional development is offered?", "a": "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." }, { "q": "Which curriculum does the school follow?", "a": "Royal Public School Palaran follows the state-board curriculum, so teaching, assessment and reporting align to that framework." } ] }
