Which curriculum does the school follow?
Rajagiri Public School follows the CBSE curriculum, so teaching, assessment and reporting align to that framework.
I'm serving notice — should I still apply?
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.

How do I make a resume for a CBSE HOD Commerce job?
