  "aboutTheRole": "This HOD role is for a senior teacher ready to set the standard for the subject and coach a small team to deliver it consistently.",
  "dayToDay": [
    "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.",
    "Own subject-level board results and improvement plans."

      "heading": "What you'll handle as a HOD Languages",
      "body": "Set the standard for your subject — define exemplar lessons, run department meetings, and own board results for the department."
    }
  ],
  "faq": [
    {
      "q": "How long does it take to hear back after applying?",
      "a": "Response times vary, but shortlisted candidates are typically contacted within a week. You'll get a notification on School Jobs India the moment the school updates your application status."
    },
    {
      "q": "Can I negotiate the salary at Vivekanand Sarasvati Shishu Mandir Sikandrabad?",
      "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 qualifications are required for a HOD Languages?",
      "a": "Most HOD Languages 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": "What questions are asked in a HOD Languages 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 make a resume for a HOD Languages job?",
      "a": "Use the free school-style resume builder — role-anchored headline, B.Ed/CTET/PD block, and measurable outcomes per school (a one-page PDF is what shortlisters want): /resume-builder."
    },
    {
      "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 this a fixed-term or open-ended contract?",
      "a": "Most permanent teaching roles in Indian K-12 schools are open-ended after a 3–6 month probation. The offer letter you receive will state the exact terms, including probation, notice period and confirmation criteria."
    },
    {
      "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": "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": "Where exactly is Vivekanand Sarasvati Shishu Mandir Sikandrabad located?",
      "a": "The school is in Bulandshahr, Uttar Pradesh. Check the \"About the school\" section for the campus link and the nearest public-transport reference."
