Which curriculum does the school follow?

Swadhaa Waldorf Learning Center follows the Cambridge / IGCSE curriculum, so teaching, assessment and reporting align to that framework.

Will I get PF and statutory benefits?

Yes — established schools provide EPF (Provident Fund) and gratuity (after 5 years), and most also provide ESI for staff under the wage threshold. Specifics are spelled out in the offer letter.

Are detailed lesson plans expected?
