The Salvation Army School in Gurdaspur, Punjab is on the lookout for a HOD Humanities. The school values educators who care about classroom culture as much as curriculum delivery.

Known locally for steady academic delivery, a stable faculty base, and a balanced mix of academics, sports, and the arts.

- 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. Requirements:
- Master's degree with a relevant teaching qualification (B.Ed./M.Ed. preferred).
- 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.

- Structured calendar with reasonable workload expectations.
- Professional development through workshops and internal training.
