  "faq": [
    {
      "q": "What does a typical day look like?",
      "a": "School days usually run 7.5–8 hours with 5–6 teaching periods, plus prep, lunch and one or two non-teaching duties (homework checks, library, club). Saturdays vary by school."
    },
    {
      "q": "How long after the interview until I get an offer letter?",
      "a": "Most schools issue a written offer within 3–7 working days of the final round. If you don't hear back in 10 days, a quick polite follow-up via the \"Message employer\" button on this Section Coordinator listing is usually welcome."
    },
    {
      "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": "What arrangements are there for women teachers' commute and safety?",
      "a": "Most reputable schools in Thiruvananthapuram run staff transport (bus or shared cab) covering the main residential clusters, with women-first drop after evening duties. On-campus, ICC (Internal Complaints Committee) compliance is standard. Confirm the route map and the last drop time during the interview."
    },
    {
      "q": "Can I negotiate the salary at Lourds Mount Public School?",
      "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 is the average Section Coordinator salary in Thiruvananthapuram?",
      "a": "Check the \"Salary snapshot\" section above for the entry / typical / senior band tailored to Section Coordinator roles in Thiruvananthapuram. City tier and board affiliation move the number materially — IB and Cambridge schools sit at the top of the range, state-board private schools at the base."
    },
    {
      "q": "Are detailed lesson plans expected?",
      "a": "Most schools expect weekly lesson plans submitted to the coordinator/HOD, plus unit plans at the start of each term. Templates are usually provided."
    },
    {
      "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": "What's the interview process like for this teaching role?",
      "a": "Typical schools run a screening call → a demo class (15–30 minutes for the relevant grade) → a panel interview with the Principal/HOD. Some boards also ask for a written response or a sample lesson plan."
    },
    {
      "q": "Which curriculum does the school follow?",
      "a": "Lourds Mount Public School follows the CBSE curriculum, so teaching, assessment and reporting align to that framework."
