Job description

Overview

Raja Rammohan Roy Academy in Dehradun, Uttarakhand is on the lookout for a HOD Humanities. The school values educators who care about classroom culture as much as curriculum delivery. Raja Rammohan Roy Academy, established 1950, is a senior secondary school in Dehradun, Uttarakhand — a ICSE / CISCE-affiliated school. The working culture is collaborative, professional, and grounded in student-centred decisions. 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. Responsibilities:

  • Lead the assigned section/department on academic and operational matters.
  • Mentor teachers through observation, feedback, and development plans.
  • Oversee assessment cycles, result analysis, and improvement plans.
  • Handle parent escalations professionally and represent the school externally.
  • Drive a culture of academic rigour, discipline, and student wellbeing. 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. Benefits at a glance:
  • Market-aligned salary (₹13.0 LPA – ₹18.9 LPA).
  • Structured working hours with adequate planning time.
  • Investment in teacher and staff development across the year.
  • A workplace built on clarity and professional respect.
  • Long-term career growth at a school invested in its people. Submit your application here so Raja Rammohan Roy Academy can shortlist you alongside the active pool. Strong profiles move to a brief teaching demo and a discussion with the academic head.
