Job description

Overview

Join the faculty at St. Thomas College as a HOD Science in Dehradun, Uttarakhand. The school maintains high academic standards alongside a collaborative, professional staff culture. St. Thomas College, established 1916, is a senior secondary campus in Dehradun, Uttarakhand — a ICSE / CISCE-affiliated school. Day-to-day work is anchored in curriculum maps, defined assessment cycles, and faculty review built into the calendar. What the role looks like: the HOD Science owns outcomes for the assigned section/portfolio — academic quality, faculty development, parent engagement, and student wellbeing — and contributes to the school's strategic plans. What you will do:

  • Own academic outcomes for the assigned portfolio.
  • Coach teachers, especially those in their first few years.
  • Drive disciplined execution of the academic and assessment calendar.
  • Represent the school in academic forums and audits.
  • Work with the Principal on medium-term plans. 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 (₹10.1 LPA – ₹18.6 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 on this page and St. Thomas College will weigh your candidacy for the opening. Next steps usually include a short demo class and a panel discussion.
