      "q": "Can I negotiate the salary at Lotus National School, Shilpa Nagar Layout?",
      "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."
