Most reputable schools have a staff-child fee concession policy. Eligibility, percentage and number of children covered vary — ask HR for the written policy.
Will I get PF and statutory benefits?

Is this a remote / work-from-home opportunity?

Can I negotiate the salary at Rajkiya Pratibha Vikas Vidyalaya?
