  "faq": [
    {
      "q": "How big are the classes?",
      "a": "Class sizes in Indian K-12 schools usually fall in the 25–40 student range. Premium IB/IGCSE schools often cap sections at 22–25."
    },
    {
      "q": "Do staff get fee concession for their children?",
      "a": "Many schools offer a tuition-fee concession for the children of full-time staff, subject to admission criteria and available seats. The appointment letter or the school's written HR policy is the authoritative source — confirm what applies before treating it as compensation."
    },
    {
      "q": "Is background verification done before joining?",
      "a": "Standard pre-joining checks cover qualification documents, prior employment, and reference calls. Some larger groups also do criminal-record verification."
    },
    {
      "q": "Will I get PF and statutory benefits?",
      "a": "Most registered schools enrol staff in EPF from day one and pay statutory gratuity. ESI cover applies if your gross is within the eligibility limit at joining."
    },
    {
      "q": "Is there a probation period?",
      "a": "Yes — a 3 to 6 month probation is standard in K-12 schools across India. Benefits like PF and gratuity continue to accrue from day one regardless."
    },
    {
      "q": "Do I need CTET / STET to apply?",
      "a": "CTET is mandatory for KVS/NVS and many CBSE schools, and a strong plus for private schools. Some IB/Cambridge schools weigh it less than relevant pedagogy training."
    },
    {
      "q": "Is this a fixed-term or open-ended contract?",
      "a": "Most permanent teaching roles in Indian K-12 schools are open-ended after a 3–6 month probation. The offer letter you receive will state the exact terms, including probation, notice period and confirmation criteria."
    },
    {
      "q": "What is the salary for this TGT Social Studies role?",
      "a": "The salary band is shown in the \"Key facts\" panel above. Final offers depend on your years of experience, qualifications and the interview outcome."
    },
    {
      "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."
    },
    {
      "q": "Is English fluency required?",
      "a": "Yes — instruction is in English at most CBSE schools. Comfortable English communication for classroom delivery and parent meetings is expected."
