Interview questions & answers for PGT Physics
Common questions Indian schools ask for PGT Physics roles in Dehradun (CBSE panel) — with a short sample answer for each so you can walk in prepared.
1. 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.
2. Tell me about yourself — how should I frame my self-introduction?
Keep it 60-90 seconds: start with your name and current role, then two or three highlights that map to the PGT Physics brief (qualifications, subject/level, standout achievement), and close with why The Cambridge Sr. Sec. school in particular. Avoid your personal life — schools evaluate structure and clarity here.
3. Why do you want to work at The Cambridge Sr. Sec. school?
Show you've done the homework: reference the CBSE curriculum, the Dehradun campus, and one specific programme or value from their website. Tie it to what you bring — pedagogy, subject expertise or a co-curricular strength.
4. How should I answer the salary expectation question?
Give a range, not a single number. Anchor on the typical PGT Physics band in Dehradun (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.
5. What questions should I ask at the end?
Ask three: one about the team (department size, coordinator style), one about growth (PD budget, appraisal cadence), and one about the school (a specific programme). Avoid opening with leave/salary questions unless the panel invites them.
6. 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.
