    "Set the subject's annual scope-and-sequence.",
    "Hire and onboard new subject teachers.",
    "Run weekly department meetings.",
    "Moderate assessments and exam papers for the subject.",

  "faq": [
    {
      "q": "What kind of professional development is offered?",
      "a": "Most schools run weekly/monthly in-house PD sessions on pedagogy and assessment. Funded external workshops (board-specific or subject-specific) are offered to teachers in good standing."
    },
    {
      "q": "How do I write an application email for this HOD English role?",
      "a": "A ready template with subject line, three-paragraph structure and attachment checklist (with a \"HOD English — Buxi Jagabandhu English Medium School\" subject-line example) is in the guide: /guides/teacher-application-letter."
    },
    {
      "q": "Is B.Ed mandatory for this role?",
      "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. Detailed CTET/TET and eligibility rules are covered in the guide: /guides/ctet-tet-qualifications."
    },
    {
      "q": "What is the average HOD English salary in Khordha?",
      "a": "Refer to the on-page \"Salary snapshot\" for the current market band. Broadly, HOD English pay in Khordha rises with years of experience, board (IB > CBSE > state), and school size — the linked full pay report breaks these out further."
    },
    {
      "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": "How big are the classes?",
      "a": "Section sizes typically range from 25 to 40 students. The school will confirm exact section size during the interview based on the grade you'll teach."
    },
    {
      "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."
    },
    {
      "q": "Is school transport available for staff?",
      "a": "Staff transport varies. Larger schools with their own fleet usually allow staff onboarding on existing routes; smaller schools may not run dedicated routes."
    },
    {
      "q": "How will I know if my application is being reviewed?",
      "a": "Every status change (viewed, shortlisted, interview scheduled, offered) is pushed to your dashboard and email. Turn on job alerts for the same role in the same city so you don't lose momentum if this one pauses."
    },
    {
      "q": "Is English fluency required?",
      "a": "Yes — instruction is in English at most CBSE schools. Comfortable English communication for classroom delivery and parent meetings is expected."
