Overview

Govt. SR SEC School in West Sikkim, Sikkim is on the lookout for a Chess Coach. The school values educators who care about classroom culture as much as curriculum delivery. Govt. SR SEC School, established 1940, runs as a senior secondary campus in West Sikkim, Sikkim — 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.

Responsibilities:

  • Plan and conduct structured practice sessions for the assigned discipline.
  • Identify and develop talent across age groups; select squads.
  • Prepare students for inter-school, district, and state events.
  • Maintain attendance, fitness, and performance records for every player.
  • Ensure equipment safety and follow injury-prevention protocols. Requirements:
  • Graduate degree, ideally in Physical Education or the sport.
  • NIS/equivalent certification and a strong personal playing record.
  • Experience coaching school-age students for competitions.
  • Understanding of fitness, injury prevention, and player safety.
  • Energy, discipline, and the ability to motivate young athletes. Why join us:
  • Predictable, on-time monthly compensation (₹4.3 LPA – ₹8.0 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. Complete your application via the button on this listing so Govt. SR SEC School receives your details directly. Matching profiles are shortlisted promptly and contacted by the academic office.
