  "faq": [
    {
      "q": "Which curriculum does the school follow?",
      "a": "Ganesh English Medium School follows the CBSE curriculum, so teaching, assessment and reporting align to that framework."
    },
    {
      "q": "Do staff get fee concession for their children?",
      "a": "Many schools offer a tuition-fee concession for the children of full-time staff, subject to admission criteria and available seats. The appointment letter or the school's written HR policy is the authoritative source — confirm what applies before treating it as compensation."
    },
    {
      "q": "I'm serving notice — should I still apply?",
      "a": "Absolutely — schools regularly hire candidates on notice. Be upfront about your release date so interview scheduling and the offer timeline can be aligned."
    },
    {
      "q": "Can I negotiate the salary at Ganesh English Medium 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": "What qualifications are required for a HOD Commerce?",
      "a": "Most HOD Commerce 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": "Where exactly is Ganesh English Medium School located?",
      "a": "The school is in Kalahandi, Odisha. Check the \"About the school\" section for the campus link and the nearest public-transport reference."
    },
    {
      "q": "How long does it take to hear back after applying?",
      "a": "Response times vary, but shortlisted candidates are typically contacted within a week. You'll get a notification on School Jobs India the moment the school updates your application status."
    },
    {
      "q": "Are meals provided at school?",
      "a": "Subsidised tea/snacks are common; full meals depend on the school. Boarding schools usually provide meals as part of the package for resident staff."
    },
    {
      "q": "Will I get PF and statutory benefits?",
      "a": "Most registered schools enrol staff in EPF from day one and pay statutory gratuity. ESI cover applies if your gross is within the eligibility limit at joining."
    },
    {
      "q": "Is the salary CTC or in-hand?",
      "a": "Most Indian schools quote annual CTC. In-hand is lower than CTC once employee PF (12% of basic, capped at ₹15,000 basic/month), professional tax and — where applicable — income tax under the new regime are deducted. Plug the offered CTC into the in-hand salary calculator at /tools/in-hand-salary-calculator for a line-by-line breakdown against this job."
