      "q": "How long after the interview until I get an offer letter?",

    {
      "q": "Is school transport available for staff?",
      "a": "Many schools offer staff bus service on their main routes, either free or at a nominal fee. Availability depends on whether your home is near a school route — confirm with HR."

      "q": "What's the interview process like for this teaching role?",
