  • Track record of leading improvement at section or school level.
  • Hiring, coaching, performance management, and conflict resolution skills.
  • Solid grasp of curriculum, assessment, and parent communication.

  • Salary structured fairly across roles (₹9.0 LPA – ₹10.3 LPA).
  • A calendar that respects academic delivery and personal time.
