    },
    {
      "q": "Are detailed lesson plans expected?",

      "q": "How do I make a resume for a CBSE HOD Science job?",
      "a": "A CBSE-focused resume works best when it starts with a role-anchored headline, highlights B.Ed/CTET/PD upfront, and lists measurable outcomes (result percentages, project launches, retention) under each school. Skip generic corporate objectives. The School Jobs India resume builder has a ready template you can fill in and download."

    {
      "q": "Is background verification done before joining?",

    },
    {
      "q": "Which curriculum does the school follow?",
      "a": "St. Antonys English Medium School follows the CBSE curriculum, so teaching, assessment and reporting align to that framework."
    },
    {
      "q": "Is B.Ed mandatory for this role?",
      "a": "Yes, for board-affiliated school teaching roles a B.Ed is generally required. Exceptions exist for very experienced subject experts and for play-school/early-years specialists."
