Keep your last 2–3 employer references and original certificates ready." }, { "q": "Is English fluency required?", "a": "Yes — instruction is in English at most CBSE schools. Comfortable English communication for classroom delivery and parent meetings is expected." }, { "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": "When are increments and bonuses given?", "a": "Annual increments are usually announced in March/April, alongside the new academic year.

The appointment letter or the school's written HR policy is the authoritative source — confirm what applies before treating it as compensation." }, { "q": "Which curriculum does the school follow?", "a": "Wishwood Cottage School follows the CBSE curriculum, so teaching, assessment and reporting align to that framework." } ] }
