Interview questions & answers for PGT Psychology
Common questions Indian schools ask for PGT Psychology roles in Lucknow (CBSE panel) — with a short sample answer for each so you can walk in prepared.
1. 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.
2. How do you differentiate for mixed-ability classrooms?
Give a concrete example — tiered worksheets, flexible groupings, scaffolded reading. Reference formative assessment (exit tickets, mini-whiteboards) as how you decide which students need what, and how you record progress against CBSE learning outcomes.
3. How should I answer the salary expectation question?
Give a range, not a single number. Anchor on the typical PGT Psychology band in Lucknow (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.
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. 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 Global School, Maya Puram runs a specific LMS, mention you'd upskill on it in the first month.
6. What is your greatest strength and weakness as an educator?
Pick a strength tied to student outcomes with one metric or story. For weakness, name a real one, follow it with the concrete steps you're taking (workshop, mentor, changed practice) — panels reject rehearsed non-answers like "I work too hard".
