- 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. Qualifications and skills:
- Master's degree with a recognised teaching/leadership qualification.
- Track record of leading improvement at section or school level.
- Hiring, coaching, performance management, and conflict resolution skills.
- Solid grasp of curriculum, assessment, and parent communication.
- High professional integrity and a clear communication style. Compensation and environment:
- Salary structured fairly across roles (₹12.9 LPA – ₹29.3 LPA).
- A calendar that respects academic delivery and personal time.
- Internal training, peer observation, and external workshops.
- A calm, professional, student-centred campus culture.
- Real backing from the leadership team when it matters. Send your CV through this listing — no separate email is required for Maa Durgaji Vidyalaya. The hiring lead reaches out personally to take qualifying candidates forward.
