Funded external workshops (board-specific or subject-specific) are offered to teachers in good standing." }, { "q": "How long does it take to hear back after applying?", "a": "Most schools review applications within 5–10 working days. If you don't hear back in two weeks, the role has usually been filled or paused — keep applying to similar openings in the meantime." }, { "q": "Where exactly is Pran Nath Faundation Jakh located?", "a": "The school is in Pithoragarh, Uttarakhand.
