  "aboutTheRole": "We're hiring a PGT to take Grades XI–XII through a full board cycle — strong subject command, clear exam strategy and patient one-on-one mentoring.",
  "dayToDay": [
    "Participate in board-result analysis and the next cycle's improvement plan.",
    "Mentor a tutor group through the academic and emotional pressure of senior school.",
    "Maintain detailed answer-script feedback and improvement plans.",

      "id": "responsibilities",
      "heading": "What you'll handle as a PGT Biology",
      "body": "Deliver advanced subject content, mentor a tutor group, prep students for boards and entrance tests, and contribute to subject-department planning."
    },
    {
      "id": "board-context",
      "heading": "Working in a STATE BOARD school",
      "body": "Working in a **state-board** setting means following the state curriculum, term plans and local examination patterns."

  ],
  "faq": [
    {
      "q": "Which curriculum does the school follow?",
      "a": "Saraswati Vidya Niketan Shantla follows the state-board curriculum, so teaching, assessment and reporting align to that framework."
    },
    {
      "q": "What is the salary for this PGT Biology role?",
      "a": "Refer to the salary range posted on this page. Most schools negotiate within this band based on your last drawn CTC and relevant experience."
    },
    {
      "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": "How long after the interview until I get an offer letter?",
      "a": "Typically 3–7 working days after the final interview, once reference checks and internal approvals are done. Verbal confirmations sometimes come sooner — always wait for the written offer before resigning your current role."
    },
    {
      "q": "When are increments and bonuses given?",
      "a": "Annual increments are usually announced in March/April, alongside the new academic year. Performance-linked bonuses vary by school — some pay a one-month festive bonus, others none."

    {
      "q": "Where exactly is Saraswati Vidya Niketan Shantla located?",
      "a": "The school is in Kangra, Himachal Pradesh. Check the \"About the school\" section for the campus link and the nearest public-transport reference."
    },
    {
      "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 does a typical day look like?",
      "a": "Most teachers handle 4–6 instructional periods a day, with the rest going to lesson planning, assessment correction, and a co-curricular duty."
    },
    {
      "q": "Is school transport available for staff?",
      "a": "Staff transport varies. Larger schools with their own fleet usually allow staff onboarding on existing routes; smaller schools may not run dedicated routes."
    },
    {
      "q": "How do I write an application email for this PGT Biology role?",
      "a": "A ready template with subject line, three-paragraph structure and attachment checklist (with a \"PGT Biology — Saraswati Vidya Niketan Shantla\" subject-line example) is in the guide: /guides/teacher-application-letter."
