The school maintains high academic standards alongside a collaborative, professional staff culture. Sri Sathya Sai Divya Jyothi Vidya Kendra, established 2004, is a secondary school in Chikkamagaluru, Karnataka — 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:

  • Observe classes, give actionable feedback, follow up on teacher development.

  • Spend time on the floor — corridors, classrooms, labs — to read the school accurately. 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. Compensation and environment:
  • Salary structured fairly across roles (₹10.3 LPA – ₹21.3 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. Submit your application here so Sri Sathya Sai Divya Jyothi Vidya Kendra can shortlist you alongside the active pool. Strong profiles move to a brief teaching demo and a discussion with the academic head.
