Primary Coordinator

Full Time

Job Description

The Primary Coordinator is a senior academic leadership role responsible for overseeing the day-to-day functioning of the primary section (Classes 1–5). The role bridges classroom teaching and school leadership — supporting teachers, upholding academic standards in line with ICSE requirements, and ensuring that Waldorf-inspired principles are meaningfully woven into the schools pedagogical fabric.
This is not a purely administrative position. The ideal candidate is a practitioner-leader: someone who has taught, understands children deeply, and can mentor and guide a team of teachers while remaining closely connected to the rhythms of the classroom.

Skills Required

  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills in English
  • Collaborative leadership style
  • Proficiency in school management systems
  • Strong understanding of child development
  • Ability to bridge structured curriculum delivery with experiential
  • arts-based
  • and inquiry-driven learning.
