Job description

Overview

Immediate opening: HOD Science at Saraswati Modern School in Ludhiana, Punjab. Open to both seasoned practitioners and early-career candidates with strong potential. Saraswati Modern School, established 2004, is a senior secondary school in Ludhiana, Punjab — a CBSE-affiliated school. The working culture is collaborative, professional, and grounded in student-centred decisions. Role: as HOD Science, you work closely with the Principal on academic and operational decisions — leading a section/team, driving teacher development, overseeing assessments, and holding the line on standards. 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. Why join us:
  • Predictable, on-time monthly compensation (₹11.5 LPA – ₹24.1 LPA).
  • Reasonable workload with planned holidays per the calendar.
  • Real ownership of your subject/function from day one.
  • A leadership team that listens, supports, and gives credit.
  • A campus that respects educators as professionals. Submit your application on this page and Saraswati Modern School will weigh your candidacy for the opening. Next steps usually include a short demo class and a panel discussion.
