  "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": [
    "Support parent counselling sessions during the board year.",
    "Coordinate practicals/projects with the lab assistant where applicable.",
    "Guide students on competitive-exam strategy where relevant to the subject.",
    "Run doubt-clearing sessions and one-on-one mentoring for board years.",
    "Set, moderate and grade pre-board and board-aligned question papers."

      "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": "city-context",
      "heading": "About teaching in Lucknow",
      "body": "Lucknow has a strong ICSE and CBSE base and is one of UP's largest hiring markets for school staff."

  ],
  "faq": [
    {
      "q": "What is the average PGT Biology salary in Lucknow?",
      "a": "Refer to the on-page \"Salary snapshot\" for the current market band. Broadly, PGT Biology pay in Lucknow rises with years of experience, board (IB > CBSE > state), and school size — the linked full pay report breaks these out further."
    },
    {
      "q": "I'm serving notice — should I still apply?",
      "a": "Yes. Most schools accept candidates with up to 60 days of notice. Mention your last working day clearly in your application so the school can plan the joining accordingly."
    },
    {
      "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 — Sumangalam Academy\" subject-line example) is in the guide: /guides/teacher-application-letter."
    },
    {
      "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's the interview process like for this teaching role?",
      "a": "Most schools have 2–3 rounds: an HR call, a demo lesson, then a leadership interview. Be ready to walk through one of your lesson plans and how you handle classroom management."
    },
    {
      "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": "What is the leave policy?",
      "a": "Teaching staff typically get all school holidays plus 8–15 casual/sick leaves per academic year. Long vacations (summer, winter, Diwali, Holi breaks) follow the published school calendar."
    },
    {
      "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": "What questions are asked in a PGT Biology interview?",
      "a": "Six sample questions with model answers for this exact role — including a demo-lesson walkthrough, classroom-management scenario and subject-specific probe — are in the PGT interview guide: /interview-questions/pgt-biology."
    },
    {
      "q": "Is B.Ed mandatory for this role?",
      "a": "For most K-12 teaching positions a B.Ed (or NIOS D.El.Ed for primary) is preferred and often required by board affiliations; pre-primary and special-skill roles sometimes accept relevant certification in lieu. Detailed CTET/TET and eligibility rules are covered in the guide: /guides/ctet-tet-qualifications."
