    {
      "q": "What is the leave policy?",

      "a": "Refer to the on-page \"Salary snapshot\" for the current market band. Broadly, TGT Social Science pay in Kanchipuram rises with years of experience, board (IB > CBSE > state), and school size — the linked full pay report breaks these out further."
    },
    {
      "q": "Is the salary CTC or in-hand?",

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": "Can I negotiate the salary at Victoria Matriculation School?",
      "a": "Yes. Since salary isn't published, quote a realistic band anchored to your last-drawn CTC + your years of experience and state-board exposure. Ask about allowances, PF, gratuity and accommodation separately — they add up."
    },
    {
      "q": "Are meals provided at school?",
      "a": "Most schools offer a subsidised staff canteen or a daily mid-morning snack and lunch. Boarding schools typically include all meals for residential staff."
    },
    {
      "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."
