Job description
Overview
Mont Fort High School in Mandla, Madhya Pradesh is on the lookout for a Wing Head - Primary. The school values educators who care about classroom culture as much as curriculum delivery. Mont Fort High School, established 1993, is a senior secondary campus in Mandla, Madhya Pradesh — a CBSE-affiliated school. Day-to-day work is anchored in curriculum maps, defined assessment cycles, and faculty review built into the calendar.

- 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. Candidate requirements:
- Senior educator with a balanced view of academics and operations.
- Proven ability to mentor teachers and improve outcomes over time.
- Strong stakeholder management — board, parents, regulators, vendors.
- Comfortable with data — assessments, attendance, faculty metrics.
- A long-term thinker who can also execute well in the short term. Perks and culture:
- Fair compensation with annual review (₹12.2 LPA – ₹28.4 LPA).
- Stable, full-time engagement with a clear academic calendar.
- Regular PD through internal and external programmes.
- A working culture that takes faculty wellbeing seriously.
- A school that genuinely cares about student outcomes. Complete your application via the button on this listing so Mont Fort High School receives your details directly. Matching profiles are shortlisted promptly and contacted by the academic office.

Interview questions & answers for Wing Head - Primary
Common questions Indian schools ask for Wing Head - Primary roles in Mandla (CBSE panel) — with a short sample answer for each so you can walk in prepared.
1. How should I answer the salary expectation question?
Give a range, not a single number. Anchor on the typical Wing Head - Primary band in Mandla (see the Salary snapshot on this page) plus a 10-15% premium for your experience. Say you're open to discussion once the role scope is confirmed.
2. Tell me about yourself — how should I frame my self-introduction?
Keep it 60-90 seconds: start with your name and current role, then two or three highlights that map to the Wing Head - Primary brief (qualifications, subject/level, standout achievement), and close with why Mont Fort High School in particular. Avoid your personal life — schools evaluate structure and clarity here.
3. What questions should I ask at the end?
Ask three: one about the team (department size, coordinator style), one about growth (PD budget, appraisal cadence), and one about the school (a specific programme). Avoid opening with leave/salary questions unless the panel invites them.
4. What is your greatest strength and weakness as an educator?
Pick a strength tied to student outcomes with one metric or story. For weakness, name a real one, follow it with the concrete steps you're taking (workshop, mentor, changed practice) — panels reject rehearsed non-answers like "I work too hard".
5. What experience is most relevant to a Wing Head - Primary role at a school?
Lead with prior school or education-sector experience if you have it. If not, translate transferable skills (safeguarding awareness, working with minors, compliance, shift discipline) into school-specific scenarios — Mont Fort High School wants to picture you on day one.
6. How should I discuss my notice period and joining date?
Be upfront and specific: last working day at current school, earliest realistic joining date, and any flexibility (early release, unpaid leave). Schools plan around academic calendars — a clear date wins over vague "as soon as possible".
