The role suits educators who value a structured environment with clear expectations and strong support. D A V Public School, Barora (bccl) Nawagarh, established 1989, is a senior secondary campus in Dhanbad, Jharkhand — a CBSE-affiliated school.

  • Observe classes, give actionable feedback, follow up on teacher development.
  • Approve calendars, assessment papers, and major parent communication.
  • Engage with leadership on hiring, budgets, and infrastructure needs.
  • Spend time on the floor — corridors, classrooms, labs — to read the school accurately. Ideal candidate — you have:
  • 8+ years in school education with leadership exposure.
  • Direct experience running a section, department, or full school.
  • A point of view on good teaching, good assessments, and good schools.
  • Patience to coach and firmness to enforce standards.
  • Strong personal organisation across multiple workstreams. Compensation and environment:
  • Salary structured fairly across roles (₹9.1 LPA – ₹15.2 LPA).
  • A calendar that respects academic delivery and personal time.
  • Internal training, peer observation, and external workshops.
  • A calm, professional, student-centred campus culture.
  • Real backing from the leadership team when it matters. Send your CV through this listing — no separate email is required for D A V Public School, Barora (bccl) Nawagarh. The hiring lead reaches out personally to take qualifying candidates forward.
