Confirmation is typically subject to satisfactory performance reviews and document verification." }, { "q": "What is the leave policy?", "a": "Teaching staff typically get all school holidays plus 8–15 casual/sick leaves per academic year.

The appointment letter or the school's written HR policy is the authoritative source — confirm what applies before treating it as compensation." } ] }
