Specifics are spelled out in the offer letter." }, { "q": "How do I make a resume for a NO BOARD Principal — Merriment English Medium School 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 school transport available for staff?", "a": "Staff transport varies.
