    {
      "q": "Will I get PF and statutory benefits?",

    },
    {
      "q": "Are meals provided at school?",

      "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": "Are detailed lesson plans expected?",
      "a": "Most schools expect weekly lesson plans submitted to the coordinator/HOD, plus unit plans at the start of each term. Templates are usually provided."
    },
    {
      "q": "Where exactly is The R K Central Academy located?",
      "a": "The school is in Udaipur, Rajasthan. Check the \"About the school\" section for the campus link and the nearest public-transport reference."
    },
    {
      "q": "When does the school want the joining date to be?",
