Overview

Cambridge Pub Sch Paloura in Jammu, Jammu & Kashmir is on the lookout for a Principal. The school values educators who care about classroom culture as much as curriculum delivery. Cambridge Pub Sch Paloura runs as a senior secondary campus in Jammu, Jammu & Kashmir — a CBSE-affiliated school. The school believes a strong campus is built on its teachers and works to be a place where faculty want to stay. About the role: the Principal is a senior position blending academic leadership with operational ownership — running reviews, mentoring teachers, handling escalations, and representing the school externally. Core responsibilities:

  • Lead and inspire a high-performing academic team.
  • Maintain standards through reviews, observations, and structured feedback.
  • Drive the assessment, reporting, and parent communication cycle.
  • Manage disciplinary cases, parent escalations, and staff conflicts.
  • Contribute to the school's strategic priorities as part of the leadership group. 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. Why join us:
  • Predictable, on-time monthly compensation (₹9.8 LPA – ₹25.7 LPA).
  • Reasonable workload with planned holidays per the calendar.
  • Real ownership of your subject/function from day one.
  • A leadership team that listens, supports, and gives credit.
  • A campus that respects educators as professionals. Submit your application online from this page to be considered by Cambridge Pub Sch Paloura. Interview slots are scheduled after profile review, typically inside five to seven working days.
