Overview
Shishu Niketan Academy in Samba, Jammu & Kashmir is on the lookout for a Montessori Teacher. The school values educators who care about classroom culture as much as curriculum delivery.

The school believes a strong campus is built on its teachers and works to be a place where faculty want to stay.

- Collaborate with the subject group on shared planning and assessments. Qualifications and skills:
- Graduation in the subject with a recognised teaching qualification.
- Demonstrated classroom delivery with the relevant age group.
- Clear understanding of formative and summative assessment design.
- Ability to collaborate within a subject team on shared plans.
- Punctuality, professionalism, and a strong sense of ownership. Compensation and environment:
- Salary structured fairly across roles (₹3.5 LPA – ₹7.1 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. Apply now using this listing, and your CV reaches the Shishu Niketan Academy hiring team within minutes. Applications are reviewed on a rolling basis; expect a response inside one working week.
