Interview questions & answers for PGT Political Science
Common questions Indian schools ask for PGT Political Science roles in Kollam (CBSE panel) — with a short sample answer for each so you can walk in prepared.
1. How do you use technology in the classroom?
Pick one or two tools you actually use (Google Classroom, Kahoot, Nearpod, a subject-specific simulator) and tie them to a learning outcome, not novelty. If Siddhartha Central School, Pallimon Distt runs a specific LMS, mention you'd upskill on it in the first month.
2. Will I need to submit a sample lesson plan?
Assume yes — most CBSE schools ask for one alongside the demo. Structure it as: objective → prior knowledge check → input (10 min) → guided practice → independent task → plenary. Include differentiation notes and one assessment prompt.
3. How would you handle a difficult parent meeting?
Listen first, restate the concern, share data (assessment scores, work samples, incident notes), then propose two next steps with a follow-up date. Emphasise you'd loop in the coordinator/HOD for anything unresolved — schools want partnership, not solo heroics.
4. Why did you choose teaching as a career?
Anchor it in a specific moment — a mentor, a classroom win, or an impact story on a student. Panels want authenticity plus a link to the future ("that's why I want to work with Grade X at your school"), not a scripted "I love kids" answer.
5. Why do you want to work at Siddhartha Central School, Pallimon Distt?
Show you've done the homework: reference the CBSE curriculum, the Kollam campus, and one specific programme or value from their website. Tie it to what you bring — pedagogy, subject expertise or a co-curricular strength.
6. How should I answer the salary expectation question?
Give a range, not a single number. Anchor on the typical PGT Political Science band in Kollam (see the Salary snapshot on this page) plus a 10-15% premium for your experience. Say you're open to discussion once the role scope is confirmed.
