Job description

Overview

Dr. A.p.j Abdul Kalam Residential School, Chamrajanagara in Chamarajanagara, Karnataka is on the lookout for a Principal. The school values educators who care about classroom culture as much as curriculum delivery. Dr. A.p.j Abdul Kalam Residential School, Chamrajanagara, established 2006, is a secondary campus in Chamarajanagara, Karnataka — 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. 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. Perks and culture:
  • Fair compensation with annual review (₹11.9 LPA – ₹20.4 LPA).
  • Stable, full-time engagement with a clear academic calendar.
  • Regular PD through internal and external programmes.
  • A working culture that takes faculty wellbeing seriously.
  • A school that genuinely cares about student outcomes. Send your CV through this listing — no separate email is required for Dr. A.p.j Abdul Kalam Residential School, Chamrajanagara. The hiring lead reaches out personally to take qualifying candidates forward.
