Viveka Foundations, established 2005, is a senior secondary campus in Kangra, Himachal Pradesh — a CBSE-affiliated school. Day-to-day work is anchored in curriculum maps, defined assessment cycles, and faculty review built into the calendar. Details: a hands-on teaching role with clear classroom responsibilities.

- Confident classroom presence and structured communication.
- Familiarity with the school's curriculum framework and assessment patterns.
- Willingness to plan thoroughly and accept peer/leader feedback.
- Genuine interest in students' academic and personal growth. Compensation and environment:
- Salary structured fairly across roles (₹4.3 LPA – ₹6.1 LPA).
- A calendar that respects academic delivery and personal time.
- Internal training, peer observation, and external workshops.
- A calm, professional, student-centred campus culture.
- Real backing from the leadership team when it matters. Submit your application here so Viveka Foundations can shortlist you alongside the active pool. Strong profiles move to a brief teaching demo and a discussion with the academic head.
Common questions about this role
What is the leave policy?
Teaching staff typically get all school holidays plus 8–15 casual/sick leaves per academic year. Long vacations (summer, winter, Diwali, Holi breaks) follow the published school calendar.
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 B.Ed mandatory for this role?
Yes, for board-affiliated school teaching roles a B.Ed is generally required. Exceptions exist for very experienced subject experts and for play-school/early-years specialists.
Are detailed lesson plans expected?
Schools generally require lesson plans aligned to the syllabus and pacing calendar. Coordinators review them weekly or fortnightly.
Is this a contract or permanent role?
This is listed as a full time role. The exact contract term and renewal terms are confirmed at offer stage.
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.
When does the school want the joining date to be?
Joining dates are usually negotiable around the school calendar. Mid-term joining is common for replacement vacancies; new positions often align to April or the start of the next term.

Interview questions & answers for TGT English
Common questions Indian schools ask for TGT English roles in Kangra (CBSE panel) — with a short sample answer for each so you can walk in prepared.
1. How would you handle a difficult parent meeting?
Listen first, restate the concern, share data (assessment scores, work samples, incident notes), then propose two next steps with a follow-up date. Emphasise you'd loop in the coordinator/HOD for anything unresolved — schools want partnership, not solo heroics.
2. 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.
3. How well do I need to know the CBSE syllabus?
Panels will probe unit-level familiarity. Skim the current CBSE scheme of work for your subject and grade, memorise two chapter names you'd be strongest teaching, and be ready to walk through the assessment pattern (weightings, project component, exam duration).
4. 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.
5. What is your greatest strength and weakness as an educator?
Pick a strength tied to student outcomes with one metric or story. For weakness, name a real one, follow it with the concrete steps you're taking (workshop, mentor, changed practice) — panels reject rehearsed non-answers like "I work too hard".
6. 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.
