      "q": "Is this a fixed-term or open-ended contract?",
      "a": "Most permanent teaching roles in Indian K-12 schools are open-ended after a 3–6 month probation. The offer letter you receive will state the exact terms, including probation, notice period and confirmation criteria."

      "q": "What is the average Accountant salary in Thrissur?",
      "a": "Check the \"Salary snapshot\" section above for the entry / typical / senior band tailored to Accountant roles in Thrissur. City tier and board affiliation move the number materially — IB and Cambridge schools sit at the top of the range, state-board private schools at the base."
