      "q": "Where exactly is K N Sathyapalan Memorial Sree Narayana Central School located?",
      "a": "The school is in Kollam, Kerala. Check the \"About the school\" section for the campus link and the nearest public-transport reference."
    },

      "q": "What's the interview process like for this teaching role?",

    {
      "q": "When does the school want the joining date to be?",
      "a": "Joining dates are usually negotiable around the school calendar. Mid-term joining is common for replacement vacancies; new positions often align to April or the start of the next term."

      "q": "Is school transport available for staff?",

      "a": "Most Personal Assistant to Principal roles require a relevant Bachelor's/Master's in the subject plus a B.Ed (or equivalent teacher-training qualification). Specific board requirements (CTET, IB workshops, IGCSE training) may also apply."
