Overview

Maharishi Vidya Mandir Public School in Kangra, Himachal Pradesh is on the lookout for a HOD Humanities. The school values educators who care about classroom culture as much as curriculum delivery. Maharishi Vidya Mandir Public School, established 1991, runs as a senior secondary campus in Kangra, Himachal Pradesh — 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. What the role looks like: the HOD Humanities owns outcomes for the assigned section/portfolio — academic quality, faculty development, parent engagement, and student wellbeing — and contributes to the school's strategic plans. Core responsibilities:

  • Lead and inspire a high-performing academic team.
  • Maintain standards through reviews, observations, and structured feedback.
  • Drive the assessment, reporting, and parent communication cycle.
  • Manage disciplinary cases, parent escalations, and staff conflicts.
  • Contribute to the school's strategic priorities as part of the leadership group. 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. What we offer:
  • Competitive, on-time salary (₹8.8 LPA – ₹18.6 LPA).
  • Defined working hours aligned with the school timetable.
  • Investment in your growth — training, mentorship, peer learning.
  • A respectful work environment focused on outcomes.
  • Access to school resources, libraries, labs, and digital tools. Submit your application here so Maharishi Vidya Mandir Public School can shortlist you alongside the active pool. Strong profiles move to a brief teaching demo and a discussion with the academic head.
