Is this a remote / work-from-home opportunity?

School roles are on-site by default — classroom teaching and student supervision require physical presence. Online tutoring openings are tagged separately on School Jobs India.

Keep it three short paragraphs: (1) subject line "HOD Humanities application — J. P. Central School"; (2) one paragraph on your qualifications and current role; (3) one paragraph on why J. P. Central School and your earliest joining date. Attach a PDF resume and any teaching-credentials scans.

I'm serving notice — should I still apply?

Absolutely — schools regularly hire candidates on notice. Be upfront about your release date so interview scheduling and the offer timeline can be aligned.

Do I have to work weekends?

Most day schools follow a 6-day or 5.5-day week with Sundays off. Occasional Saturdays may go to events, parent meetings, or PD sessions.
