  "faq": [
    {
      "q": "Do I need CTET / STET to apply?",
      "a": "CTET/STET is preferred for most board-affiliated school teaching roles. Cambridge / IGCSE schools differ in how strictly this is enforced — apply even if you don't have it, and clear it in parallel."
    },
    {
      "q": "Can I negotiate the salary at APL Global School?",
      "a": "Yes — the band shown is a starting point. Schools consider your last-drawn CTC, teaching experience, board expertise (Cambridge / IGCSE) and any specialist skills. Come prepared with a specific number and a 1-line justification."
    },
    {
      "q": "What does a typical day look like?",
      "a": "Most teachers handle 4–6 instructional periods a day, with the rest going to lesson planning, assessment correction, and a co-curricular duty."

      "q": "What is the salary for this A-Level Chemistry Teacher role?",

    {
      "q": "When are increments and bonuses given?",
      "a": "Annual increments are usually announced in March/April, alongside the new academic year. Performance-linked bonuses vary by school — some pay a one-month festive bonus, others none."
    },
    {
      "q": "Do I have to work weekends?",
      "a": "Standard week is Monday to Saturday (often half-day Saturday). Occasional event Sundays exist (Annual Day, Sports Day, admissions test days) and are usually compensated with a comp-off."
    },
    {
      "q": "Is English fluency required?",
      "a": "Yes — instruction is in English at most Cambridge / IGCSE schools. Comfortable English communication for classroom delivery and parent meetings is expected."
