Join N S S Public School in Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala as our next Principal. The school invests in its faculty and runs a calm, well-organised academic calendar. N S S Public School in Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala functions as a senior secondary institution — a CBSE-affiliated school, established 1973,.

  • Engage with leadership on hiring, budgets, and infrastructure needs.

  • Master's degree with a relevant teaching qualification (B.Ed./M.Ed. preferred).
  • Significant classroom experience plus years in coordination/leadership.
  • Calm, confident judgement with students, parents, and staff.
  • Clear writing for academic plans, reports, and parent communication.
