Overview

Al -Fallah Islamia School in Shopian, Jammu & Kashmir is on the lookout for a Principal. The school values educators who care about classroom culture as much as curriculum delivery.

Day-to-day work is anchored in curriculum maps, defined assessment cycles, and faculty review built into the calendar.

Responsibilities:

  • Lead the assigned section/department on academic and operational matters.
  • Mentor teachers through observation, feedback, and development plans.
  • Oversee assessment cycles, result analysis, and improvement plans.
  • Handle parent escalations professionally and represent the school externally.
  • Drive a culture of academic rigour, discipline, and student wellbeing. Candidate requirements:
  • Senior educator with a balanced view of academics and operations.
  • Proven ability to mentor teachers and improve outcomes over time.
  • Strong stakeholder management — board, parents, regulators, vendors.
  • Comfortable with data — assessments, attendance, faculty metrics.
  • A long-term thinker who can also execute well in the short term. Benefits at a glance:
  • Market-aligned salary (₹8.4 LPA – ₹10.3 LPA).
  • Structured working hours with adequate planning time.
  • Investment in teacher and staff development across the year.
  • A workplace built on clarity and professional respect.
  • Long-term career growth at a school invested in its people. Submit your application here so Al -Fallah Islamia School can shortlist you alongside the active pool. Strong profiles move to a brief teaching demo and a discussion with the academic head.
