If you don't hear back in 10 days, a quick polite follow-up via the \"Message employer\" button on this TGT Social Studies listing is usually welcome." }, { "q": "Can I negotiate the salary at Cornerstone School?", "a": "Most schools have a defined band per role but the final number is negotiable within it. The strongest levers are recent teaching experience, board expertise, and willingness to take on coordinator/extra-curricular responsibilities." }, { "q": "What is the leave policy?", "a": "Schools usually offer 10–18 leaves per year on top of public/school holidays. Earned-leave encashment policies vary — check the offer letter." }, { "q": "Is background verification done before joining?", "a": "Standard pre-joining checks cover qualification documents, prior employment, and reference calls. Some larger groups also do criminal-record verification." }, { "q": "Is English fluency required?", "a": "Yes — instruction is in English at most CBSE schools. Comfortable English communication for classroom delivery and parent meetings is expected." }, { "q": "Do I need CTET / STET to apply?", "a": "CTET is mandatory for KVS/NVS and many CBSE schools, and a strong plus for private schools. Some IB/Cambridge schools weigh it less than relevant pedagogy training." }, { "q": "What non-teaching duties are expected?", "a": "Beyond teaching periods you'll typically own a homeroom, run one club/activity, support exam logistics, and contribute to one school-wide initiative each term." }, { "q": "Do staff get fee concession for their children?", "a": "Many schools offer a tuition-fee concession for the children of full-time staff, subject to admission criteria and available seats. The appointment letter or the school's written HR policy is the authoritative source — confirm what applies before treating it as compensation." }, { "q": "How will I know if my application is being reviewed?", "a": "You'll get a status notification on School Jobs India (and by email) each time the school updates your application — Shortlisted, Interviewing, Offered or Not selected. Sign in and open \"My applications\" to see the timeline anytime." }, { "q": "When does the school want the joining date to be?", "a": "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." } ] }
