About the school: We believe there is a profound, multi-layered meaning to an old saying, “It takes a village to raise a child”. There are three pillars to any successful school: students, teachers, and parents. If any of these groups are overlooked, it creates an imbalance in the very foundation of the school. Providing our children with good education is one of the most important responsibilities we have as educators. We also prefer to work with dedicated teachers who love their jobs and give our children the care and attention they deserve, no matter how challenging this task might be at times.
Common questions about this role
How long does it take to hear back after applying?
Schools usually shortlist within a week or two. Set up a job alert for similar roles so you don't miss the next match if this one doesn't move forward.
I'm serving notice — should I still apply?
Absolutely — schools regularly hire candidates on notice. Be upfront about your release date so interview scheduling and the offer timeline can be aligned.
Do staff get fee concession for their children?
Many established schools offer 50–100% tuition concession for the children of full-time staff, subject to admission criteria. Confirm specifics in the offer letter.
Is B.Ed mandatory for this role?
For most K-12 teaching positions in India a B.Ed (or NIOS D.El.Ed for primary) is preferred and often required by board affiliations. Some pre-primary and special-skill roles accept relevant certification in lieu.
Is there a probation period?
Yes — a 3 to 6 month probation is standard in K-12 schools across India. Benefits like PF and gratuity continue to accrue from day one regardless.
