We need to output HTML fragment with headings

for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. Remove boilerplate, navigation, legal, EEO, duplicated lines, application instructions. Also remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. So we need to extract substantive content: role description, responsibilities, requirements/qualifications/skills, benefits. Also maybe schedule? Not mentioned. Pay? Not mentioned. So we should not create Pay or Schedule sections. We need to preserve all substantive info. Let's parse the posting. First part: Role Description/Criteria: description of college, new campus, etc. Then "About the role" paragraph. Then bullet list of responsibilities? Actually after "About the role" there is description of duties: "The successful candidate will provide strong educational leadership in the design and implementation of a contemporary primary curriculum, while fostering evidence-informed pedagogy and a culture of continuous improvement. They will build a strong and inclusive learning environment where every student is known, supported and challenged to achieve their potential, and develop authentic partnerships with families and the wider community. The Principal: Primary School will lead the development of a school recognised for pedagogical excellence, educational innovation, and a deep commitment to student wellbeing. As a member of the MacKillop College Leadership Team, the Principal will also contribute to the strategic direction of MacKillop College, strengthening the continuity of learning and the seamless educational journey from Foundation to Year 12." That's responsibilities. Then "This is an exciting opportunity..." etc. Then "This full time, position of leadership (Primary Principal, Level 4) is for a fixed term of five years, commencing in January 2027." That's schedule? It's term length, maybe schedule? Not exactly schedule but could be considered schedule? The instruction: include Schedule section only if posting actually states them. It states fixed term of five years, commencing Jan 2027. That's schedule info (duration). Could be considered schedule. However they said "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." Might combine schedule into About the role? But we have separate headings allowed. Probably we should include a Schedule section with that info. Then "Our ideal Candidate will have a commitment to working in a Catholic education environment leadership experience which demonstrates a balance of strategic thinking and operational leadership a demonstrated capacity to lead change and embed evidence-based practices an ability to create an environment where students flourish and staff are informed and empowered demonstrated success in building strong connections with families exceptional organisational, problem-solving skills and attention to detail a proactive mindset with a commitment to continuous improvement" That's qualifications/requirements/skills. Could be split into Requirements and Skills. But we can combine into Requirements or Qualifications. The instruction: Use headings for sections e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We can choose which to include based on content. We have responsibilities, requirements/qualifications/skills, benefits, schedule. We could have Requirements and Skills separate but they'd be thin. Better to have Requirements (including qualifications and skills) as one section. Benefits: list after "Benefits our welcoming and supportive culture..." Actually the text: "Benefits our welcoming and supportive culture based on Gospel Values and the Josephite tradition opportunity to shape the future for Catholic education in the community professional growth and career development within MacKillop College and Melbourne Archdiocese Catholic Schools empathetic staff wellbeing programs, including access to emotional support and counselling/debriefing contemporary learning facilities, across three campuses structured professional collaboration, including regular reflection on pedagogical practice access to a team of dedicated instructional coaches and teacher mentors free onsite parking, access to an onsite gym and discounted College fees" That's a list of benefits. Should be
  • . Now we need to remove boilerplate: Application instructions, etc. Also remove duplicated lines like "Application To apply for this role please visit..." and "Further information: Michael Trainor..." and "MacKillop College promotes the safety, wellbeing, and inclusion of all students" and "Application Procedures". Also remove the initial description about college? That is substantive? It's about the college and new campus. Might be considered part of About the role? Actually it's background. Could be included in About the role section as context. The instruction: preserve ALL substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we should keep that description. However the "About the role" heading already present; we can put the college description under About the role as well. Thus About the role section will contain: description of college, new campus, plus the role description paragraphs. Responsibilities: the bullet points of duties. Requirements/Qualifications/Skills: the ideal candidate list. Benefits: the list. Schedule: fixed term five years commencing Jan 2027. We must not repeat job title as heading. Not include Job ID.
