- Spend time on the floor — corridors, classrooms, labs — to read the school accurately. 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.

- Salary structured fairly across roles (₹12.5 LPA – ₹19.7 LPA).
- A calendar that respects academic delivery and personal time.
- Internal training, peer observation, and external workshops.
