Specifics are spelled out in the offer letter." }, { "q": "How do I make a resume for a CBSE Head of School job?", "a": "A CBSE-focused resume works best when it starts with a role-anchored headline, highlights B.Ed/CTET/PD upfront, and lists measurable outcomes (result percentages, project launches, retention) under each school. Skip generic corporate objectives. The School Jobs India resume builder has a ready template you can fill in and download." }, { "q": "What qualifications are required for a Head of School?", "a": "The role expects relevant qualifications and prior experience in a similar setup.

Mid-term joining is common for replacement vacancies; new positions often align to April or the start of the next term." }, { "q": "Is this a remote / work-from-home opportunity?", "a": "School roles are on-site by default — classroom teaching and student supervision require physical presence. Online tutoring openings are tagged separately on School Jobs India." }, { "q": "How long does it take to hear back after applying?", "a": "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." }, { "q": "I'm serving notice — should I still apply?", "a": "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." } ] }
