Specific board requirements (CTET, IB workshops, IGCSE training) may also apply." }, { "q": "What kind of professional development is offered?", "a": "Most schools run weekly/monthly in-house PD sessions on pedagogy and assessment. Funded external workshops (board-specific or subject-specific) are offered to teachers in good standing." }, { "q": "Is accommodation provided?", "a": "Day schools generally don't provide accommodation.
