  "faq": [
    {
      "q": "Where exactly is Saraswati Balika Vidya Mandir Purvaritola Biswan Sitapur located?",
      "a": "The school is in Sitapur, Uttar Pradesh. Check the \"About the school\" section for the campus link and the nearest public-transport reference."
    },
    {
      "q": "What does a typical day look like?",
      "a": "School days usually run 7.5–8 hours with 5–6 teaching periods, plus prep, lunch and one or two non-teaching duties (homework checks, library, club). Saturdays vary by school."
    },
    {
      "q": "Is there a probation period?",
      "a": "Yes — a 3 to 6 month probation is standard in K-12 schools across India. Benefits like PF and gratuity continue to accrue from day one regardless."
    },
    {
      "q": "How will I know if my application is being reviewed?",
      "a": "You'll get a status notification on School Jobs India (and by email) each time the school updates your application — Shortlisted, Interviewing, Offered or Not selected. Sign in and open \"My applications\" to see the timeline anytime."
    },
    {
      "q": "What qualifications are required for a HOD English?",
      "a": "Most HOD English 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": "How long does it take to hear back after applying?",
      "a": "Schools usually shortlist within a week or two. Set up a job alert for similar roles so you don't miss the next match if this one doesn't move forward."
    },
    {
      "q": "Do I have to work weekends?",
      "a": "Most day schools follow a 6-day or 5.5-day week with Sundays off. Occasional Saturdays may go to events, parent meetings, or PD sessions."
    },
    {
      "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": "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."
    },
    {
      "q": "What arrangements are there for women teachers' commute and safety?",
      "a": "Most reputable schools in Sitapur run staff transport (bus or shared cab) covering the main residential clusters, with women-first drop after evening duties. On-campus, ICC (Internal Complaints Committee) compliance is standard. Confirm the route map and the last drop time during the interview."
