    {
      "q": "What qualifications are required for a Admissions Counsellor?",
      "a": "Most Admissions Counsellor roles require a relevant Bachelor's/Master's in the subject plus a B.Ed (or equivalent teacher-training qualification). Specific board requirements (CTET, IB workshops, IGCSE training) may also apply."
    },
    {
      "q": "Is school transport available for staff?",
