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

What you will do:
- Own academic outcomes for the assigned portfolio.
- Coach teachers, especially those in their first few years.

- 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 (₹10.3 LPA – ₹13.3 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. Submit your application here so St Kabir High School can shortlist you alongside the active pool. Strong profiles move to a brief teaching demo and a discussion with the academic head.
