      "q": "Can I negotiate the salary at Jai Bhavani Vidyala and Junior College?",
      "a": "Yes — the band shown is a starting point. Schools consider your last-drawn CTC, teaching experience, board expertise (state-board) and any specialist skills. Come prepared with a specific number and a 1-line justification."
    },
    {
      "q": "When does the school want the joining date to be?",
