    {
      "q": "Can I negotiate the salary at Shanti Niketan School JAI Prakash Nagar Bairia?",
      "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 arrangements are there for women teachers' commute and safety?",
      "a": "Most reputable schools in Muzaffarpur run staff transport (bus or shared cab) covering the main residential clusters, with women-first drop after evening duties.
