Overview

Immediate opening: Personal Assistant to Principal at The Drona School in Dehradun, Uttarakhand. Open to both seasoned practitioners and early-career candidates with strong potential. The Drona School in Dehradun, Uttarakhand is a senior secondary institution — a CBSE-affiliated school. The school pairs a traditional academic core with modern classroom practices and consistent investment in faculty enablement. Details: a high-ownership leadership role. The Personal Assistant to Principal leads by example in classrooms, faculty meetings, and parent interactions, while keeping the school's long-term direction in view. 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. Qualifications and skills:
  • Master's degree with a recognised teaching/leadership qualification.
  • Track record of leading improvement at section or school level.
  • Hiring, coaching, performance management, and conflict resolution skills.
  • Solid grasp of curriculum, assessment, and parent communication.
  • High professional integrity and a clear communication style. Compensation and environment:
  • Salary structured fairly across roles (₹10.2 LPA – ₹24.9 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 The Drona School can shortlist you alongside the active pool. Strong profiles move to a brief teaching demo and a discussion with the academic head.
