Job description

Overview

PM SHRI Kendriya Vidyalaya is recruiting a HOD Commerce in Vellore, Tamilnadu. The academic framework is built around clear learning goals, regular reviews, and a healthy planning rhythm. PM SHRI Kendriya Vidyalaya, established 1992, runs as a senior secondary campus in Vellore, Tamilnadu — 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 Commerce owns outcomes for the assigned section/portfolio — academic quality, faculty development, parent engagement, and student wellbeing — and contributes to the school's strategic plans. Day to day, you will:

  • 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. Requirements:
  • 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.
  • A track record of building and retaining strong teaching teams. Compensation and environment:
  • Salary structured fairly across roles (₹12.9 LPA – ₹28.6 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. Submit your application online from this page to be considered by PM SHRI Kendriya Vidyalaya. Interview slots are scheduled after profile review, typically inside five to seven working days.
