      "q": "How do I write an application email for this HOD Commerce role?",
      "a": "A ready template with subject line, three-paragraph structure and attachment checklist (with a \"HOD Commerce — Public School Hakura\" subject-line example) is in the guide: /guides/teacher-application-letter."

      "a": "For most K-12 teaching positions a B.Ed (or NIOS D.El.Ed for primary) is preferred and often required by board affiliations; pre-primary and special-skill roles sometimes accept relevant certification in lieu.

      "q": "Is there a probation period?",

    },
    {
      "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."
