      "q": "What arrangements are there for women teachers' commute and safety?",
      "a": "Staff transport with defined pickup points, a women-first evening drop policy, CCTV coverage in corridors and staff areas, and an active Internal Complaints Committee are the norm at most established Indian schools. Ask HR for the specific route serving your locality."

    {
      "q": "Can I negotiate the salary at THE Indian Academy Palia Kalan?",
      "a": "Yes — the band shown is a starting point. Schools consider your last-drawn CTC, teaching experience, board expertise and any specialist skills. Come prepared with a specific number and a 1-line justification."

    {
      "q": "I'm serving notice — should I still apply?",
