Common questions about this role
Is the salary CTC or in-hand?
Schools quote CTC by default. In-hand depends on PF (12% employee share), professional tax, and your tax slab — ask HR for a sample salary structure before accepting.
Is English fluency required?
Yes — instruction is in English at most CBSE schools. Comfortable English communication for classroom delivery and parent meetings is expected.
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.
Which curriculum does the school follow?
St. John's School follows the CBSE curriculum, so teaching, assessment and reporting align to that framework.
How do I write an application email for this TGT English role?
Keep it three short paragraphs: (1) subject line "TGT English application — St. John's School"; (2) one paragraph on your qualifications and current role; (3) one paragraph on why St. John's School and your earliest joining date. Attach a PDF resume and any teaching-credentials scans.
Is this a remote / work-from-home opportunity?
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.
When does the school want the joining date to be?
Most school roles aim for a joining around the start of the next academic month or term. Once shortlisted, the school will agree a realistic date based on your notice period.
