The strongest levers are recent teaching experience, board expertise, and willingness to take on coordinator/extra-curricular responsibilities." }, { "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.

Some larger groups also do criminal-record verification." }, { "q": "How do I write an application email for this HOD Mathematics role?", "a": "A ready template with subject line, three-paragraph structure and attachment checklist (with a \"HOD Mathematics — Amethyst International School\" subject-line example) is in the guide: /guides/teacher-application-letter." } ] }
