Job description

Overview

Sainik School in Purulia, West Bengal is on the lookout for a Vice Principal. The school values educators who care about classroom culture as much as curriculum delivery. About the institution: Sainik School in Purulia, West Bengal — a senior secondary setup, established 1962, — a CBSE-affiliated school. The school invests consistently in academic resources, classroom technology, and a culture of professional respect. Context: the Vice Principal reports into the Principal and works alongside other senior leaders. The role carries academic and operational responsibilities and is central to the school's day-to-day functioning. 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. What we offer:
  • Competitive, on-time salary (₹8.1 LPA – ₹15.7 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. Complete your application through this page with your latest CV and references. The recruitment desk at Sainik School reviews every profile that arrives via the platform.

What's the interview process like for this teaching role?

Most schools have 2–3 rounds: an HR call, a demo lesson, then a leadership interview. Be ready to walk through one of your lesson plans and how you handle classroom management.
