  "faq": [
    {
      "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": "Where can I find similar vacancies?",
      "a": "Use the \"Similar jobs\" panel below, or set up a free job alert so new matching vacancies arrive in your inbox the moment they're posted."
    },
    {
      "q": "How long after the interview until I get an offer letter?",
      "a": "Most schools issue a written offer within 3–7 working days of the final round. If you don't hear back in 10 days, a quick polite follow-up via the \"Message employer\" button on this HOD Humanities listing is usually welcome."
    },
    {
      "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": "Which curriculum does the school follow?",
      "a": "Vikas Vidyaniketan follows the CBSE curriculum, so teaching, assessment and reporting align to that framework."
    },
    {
      "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": "Do I have to work weekends?",
      "a": "As this is a residential/boarding school, expect a rotational weekend duty roster on top of the regular week. The exact roster depends on your house and section."
    },
    {
      "q": "What questions are asked in a HOD Humanities interview?",
      "a": "A full library of role-specific interview guides (PRT, TGT, PGT, subject-wise, coordinator, principal) with model answers is at /interview-questions."
    },
    {
      "q": "How do I write an application email for this HOD Humanities role?",
      "a": "A ready template with subject line, three-paragraph structure and attachment checklist (with a \"HOD Humanities — Vikas Vidyaniketan\" subject-line example) is in the guide: /guides/teacher-application-letter."
