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

  • Represent the school in academic forums and audits.
  • Work with the Principal on medium-term plans. 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. Compensation and environment:
  • Salary structured fairly across roles (₹11.3 LPA – ₹12.2 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 DAV Gyanodaya Vidya Mandir. The hiring lead reaches out personally to take qualifying candidates forward.
