Broadly, Principal pay in Amritsar rises with years of experience, board (IB > CBSE > state), and school size — the linked full pay report breaks these out further." }, { "q": "Is accommodation provided?", "a": "Day schools generally don't provide accommodation. The school may help with referrals to nearby PGs or rentals during your relocation." }, { "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." }, { "q": "What qualifications are required for a Principal?", "a": "Most Principal roles require a relevant Bachelor's/Master's in the subject plus a B.Ed (or equivalent teacher-training qualification). Specific board requirements (CTET, IB workshops, IGCSE training) may also apply." }, { "q": "Will I get PF and statutory benefits?", "a": "Yes — established schools provide EPF (Provident Fund) and gratuity (after 5 years), and most also provide ESI for staff under the wage threshold. Specifics are spelled out in the offer letter." }, { "q": "I'm serving notice — should I still apply?", "a": "Yes. Most schools accept candidates with up to 60 days of notice. Mention your last working day clearly in your application so the school can plan the joining accordingly." }, { "q": "What arrangements are there for women teachers' commute and safety?", "a": "Staff transport with defined pickup points, a women-first evening drop policy, CCTV coverage in corridors and staff areas, and an active Internal Complaints Committee are the norm at most established Indian schools. Ask HR for the specific route serving your locality." }, { "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. Verbal confirmations sometimes come sooner — always wait for the written offer before resigning your current role." }, { "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": "How big are the classes?", "a": "Section sizes typically range from 25 to 40 students. The school will confirm exact section size during the interview based on the grade you'll teach." } ] }
