  • Observe classes, give actionable feedback, follow up on teacher development.

  • Master's degree with a recognised teaching/leadership qualification.
  • Track record of leading improvement at section or school level.
  • Hiring, coaching, performance management, and conflict resolution skills.
  • Solid grasp of curriculum, assessment, and parent communication.
  • High professional integrity and a clear communication style. What we offer:
  • Competitive, on-time salary (₹10.5 LPA – ₹16.5 LPA).
  • Defined working hours aligned with the school timetable.
  • Investment in your growth — training, mentorship, peer learning.
  • A respectful work environment focused on outcomes.
  • Access to school resources, libraries, labs, and digital tools. Submit your application on this page and Delhi Public School will weigh your candidacy for the opening. Next steps usually include a short demo class and a panel discussion.
