    {
      "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."
    },
    {
      "q": "Is there a probation period?",
      "a": "Most schools run a 3–6 month probation with the same salary as confirmation. Confirmation is typically subject to satisfactory performance reviews and document verification."
    },
    {
      "q": "What qualifications are required for a TGT Social Studies?",
      "a": "Most TGT Social Studies roles require a relevant Bachelor's/Master's in the subject plus a B.Ed (or equivalent teacher-training qualification). Specific board requirements (CTET, IB workshops, IGCSE training) may also apply."

      "q": "Which curriculum does the school follow?",
      "a": "Mekana International School follows the CBSE curriculum, so teaching, assessment and reporting align to that framework."

    },
    {
      "q": "Do I need CTET / STET to apply?",
      "a": "CBSE-affiliated schools strongly prefer (and many require) CTET/STET qualification for primary and TGT roles. Cleared candidates are usually shortlisted on priority."

    {
      "q": "How long after the interview until I get an offer letter?",
      "a": "Typically 3–7 working days after the final interview, once reference checks and internal approvals are done. Verbal confirmations sometimes come sooner — always wait for the written offer before resigning your current role."
    },
    {
      "q": "How long does it take to hear back after applying?",
      "a": "Response times vary, but shortlisted candidates are typically contacted within a week. You'll get a notification on School Jobs India the moment the school updates your application status."
