Job description
Overview
The Sardar Dastur Hoshang Boys' High School, a State Board school in Pune, is hiring a HOD Humanities.
Key responsibilities:
- Lead the subject department and mentor teachers

- Coordinate with school leadership on academic matters
Requirements:
- 5-12 years of relevant experience
- Postgraduate in the subject with B.Ed; minimum 5 years of teaching
About the school: In today's ever-changing world, one of education's great challenges is to respond to the growing demands of the education environment so as to enhance the quality of teaching and learning in schools. The new paradigm requires that the educational system adapts itself by offering an environment which adequately meets the needs of students and teachers as opposed to having school patterns fit into the existing environment. This inevitably implies flexibility and adaptations in many areas - including the planning and designing of schools which correspond to these evolving needs.
Common questions about this role
Are meals provided at school?
Subsidised tea/snacks are common; full meals depend on the school. Boarding schools usually provide meals as part of the package for resident staff.
Is background verification done before joining?
Standard pre-joining checks cover qualification documents, prior employment, and reference calls. Some larger groups also do criminal-record verification.
What does a typical day look like?
School days usually run 7.5–8 hours with 5–6 teaching periods, plus prep, lunch and one or two non-teaching duties (homework checks, library, club). Saturdays vary by school.
How long does it take to hear back after applying?
Most schools review applications within 5–10 working days. If you don't hear back in two weeks, the role has usually been filled or paused — keep applying to similar openings in the meantime.
Is English fluency required?
Bilingual fluency (English + regional language) is typically expected at state-board schools, especially for lower grades. Senior-secondary subject roles lean more English-first.
