Job description

Overview

Guru Nanak Public School in Cuttack, Odisha is on the lookout for a Principal. The school values educators who care about classroom culture as much as curriculum delivery. Guru Nanak Public School, established 1989, is a senior secondary campus in Cuttack, Odisha — a CBSE-affiliated school. Day-to-day work is anchored in curriculum maps, defined assessment cycles, and faculty review built into the calendar. Role: as Principal, 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. What you will do:

  • Own academic outcomes for the assigned portfolio.
  • Coach teachers, especially those in their first few years.
  • Drive disciplined execution of the academic and assessment calendar.
  • Represent the school in academic forums and audits.
  • Work with the Principal on medium-term plans. 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 (₹7.5 LPA – ₹23.6 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 online from this page to be considered by Guru Nanak Public School. Interview slots are scheduled after profile review, typically inside five to seven working days.
