      "a": "The required experience is shown in the \"Key facts\" panel above. Schools also consider relevant internships, board-prep training and student-teaching when evaluating early-career candidates."

      "a": "Keep it three short paragraphs: (1) subject line \"PGT Geography application — Good Shepherd Public School\"; (2) one paragraph on your qualifications and current role; (3) one paragraph on why Good Shepherd Public School and your earliest joining date. Attach a PDF resume and any teaching-credentials scans."
    },
    {
      "q": "Can I negotiate the salary at Good Shepherd Public School?",
      "a": "Most schools have a defined band per role but the final number is negotiable within it. The strongest levers are recent teaching experience, board expertise, and willingness to take on coordinator/extra-curricular responsibilities."

      "q": "Is this a contract or permanent role?",
      "a": "This is listed as a full time role. The exact contract term and renewal terms are confirmed at offer stage."

      "q": "Is this a fixed-term or open-ended contract?",

      "q": "How long does it take to hear back after applying?",

    },
    {
      "q": "Is the salary CTC or in-hand?",
      "a": "Schools quote CTC by default. In-hand depends on PF (12% employee share), professional tax, and your tax slab — ask HR for a sample salary structure before accepting."

      "q": "What's the interview process like for this teaching role?",
      "a": "Typical schools run a screening call → a demo class (15–30 minutes for the relevant grade) → a panel interview with the Principal/HOD. Some boards also ask for a written response or a sample lesson plan."
