      "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."

    {
      "q": "Can I negotiate the salary at Banimandir Railway H.s. School?",
