Gurdaspur Public School invites applications for a Academic Coordinator in Gurdaspur, Punjab. The role is integral to our academic calendar, with reasonable workload and clear deliverables. Gurdaspur Public School, established 1989, is a senior secondary campus in Gurdaspur, Punjab — a CBSE-affiliated school. Day-to-day work is anchored in curriculum maps, defined assessment cycles, and faculty review built into the calendar. Details: a high-ownership leadership role. The Academic Coordinator leads by example in classrooms, faculty meetings, and parent interactions, while keeping the school's long-term direction in view. 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. Ideal candidate — you have:
- 8+ years in school education with leadership exposure.
- Direct experience running a section, department, or full school.
- A point of view on good teaching, good assessments, and good schools.
- Patience to coach and firmness to enforce standards.
- Strong personal organisation across multiple workstreams. Why join us:
- Predictable, on-time monthly compensation (₹10.6 LPA – ₹18.2 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. Submit your application here so Gurdaspur Public School can shortlist you alongside the active pool. Strong profiles move to a brief teaching demo and a discussion with the academic head.
