Overview
We are looking for a HOD English to join Daly College in Indore, Madhya Pradesh. You will work alongside an experienced team that takes student outcomes seriously. Daly College in Indore, Madhya Pradesh is a senior secondary institution — a CBSE-affiliated school, established 1882,. The school pairs a traditional academic core with modern classroom practices and consistent investment in faculty enablement. Context: the HOD English reports into the Principal and works alongside other senior leaders. The role carries academic and operational responsibilities and is central to the school's day-to-day functioning. Day to day, you will:
- Run faculty meetings, academic reviews, and section-level planning.
- 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. Requirements:
- Master's degree with a relevant teaching qualification (B.Ed./M.Ed. preferred).
- Significant classroom experience plus years in coordination/leadership.
- Calm, confident judgement with students, parents, and staff.
- Clear writing for academic plans, reports, and parent communication.
- A track record of building and retaining strong teaching teams. Why join us:
- Predictable, on-time monthly compensation (₹11.0 LPA – ₹12.6 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 on this page and Daly College will weigh your candidacy for the opening. Next steps usually include a short demo class and a panel discussion.
Common questions about this role
Which curriculum does the school follow?
Daly College follows the CBSE curriculum, so teaching, assessment and reporting align to that framework.
How big are the classes?
Section sizes typically range from 25 to 40 students. The school will confirm exact section size during the interview based on the grade you'll teach.
Is there a probation period?
Most schools run a 3–6 month probation with the same salary as confirmation. Confirmation is typically subject to satisfactory performance reviews and document verification.
How do I write an application email for this HOD English role?
Use a clear subject line with role and your name, open with which vacancy you're applying to, then a 4-5 line summary of qualifications, teaching experience and notice period. Close with availability for a demo lesson and interview. Attach a one-page PDF resume — long text bodies get skimmed.
What is the average HOD English salary in Indore?
Refer to the on-page "Salary snapshot" for the current market band. Broadly, HOD English pay in Indore varies with years of experience (each 3-year block adds roughly 15-25%), board (IB > CBSE > state), and school size — the linked full pay report breaks these out further.
What arrangements are there for women teachers' commute and safety?
Staff transport with defined pickup points, a women-first evening drop policy, CCTV coverage in corridors and staff areas, and an active Internal Complaints Committee are the norm at most established Indian schools. Ask HR for the specific route serving your locality.
What does a typical day look like?
Most teachers handle 4–6 instructional periods a day, with the rest going to lesson planning, assessment correction, and a co-curricular duty.
Is this a remote / work-from-home opportunity?
School roles are on-site by default — classroom teaching and student supervision require physical presence. Online tutoring openings are tagged separately on School Jobs India.
What non-teaching duties are expected?
Common non-teaching duties include exam invigilation, homework correction, parent-teacher meetings, one co-curricular activity, and being a homeroom/tutor-group mentor.
What's the interview process like for this teaching role?
Most schools have 2–3 rounds: an HR call, a demo lesson, then a leadership interview. Be ready to walk through one of your lesson plans and how you handle classroom management.
