Long working hours, no personal life as carrying work at home is a common part of the job. Lot of pressure of performance otherwise you'll not get appraisal. No tea or breakfast or free lunch to the staff though they are working for long 8 hours.

The school has been very supportive, in fee crisis also it has extended support by giving 40% of the salary and have done justice to the teachers by not enforcing them to come to school. The school teachers are giving online classes to the students and enabling them to cope up with their studies. The school has also given an exposure to the teachers and students for falicitating better learning and skill development through organising numerous webinars and online training sessions. It allows space for innovation and growth.
