Job description
Overview
A vacancy has opened for a HOD Commerce at Doaba Public SR SEC School in Hoshiarpur, Punjab. The role suits educators who value a structured environment with clear expectations and strong support. Doaba Public SR SEC School, established 1977, runs as a senior secondary campus in Hoshiarpur, Punjab — 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. Role: as HOD Commerce, you work closely with the Principal on academic and operational decisions — leading a section/team, driving teacher development, overseeing assessments, and holding the line on standards. 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. Compensation and environment:
- Salary structured fairly across roles (₹8.2 LPA – ₹24.4 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. Submit your application on this page and Doaba Public SR SEC School will weigh your candidacy for the opening. Next steps usually include a short demo class and a panel discussion.
