St Xaviers High School | Gopalganj
Social Science
Full Time
Job Description
Social Science teaching at St Xaviers High School in Gopalganj requires a dedicated educator who can engage students with India’s social studies curriculum while fostering critical thinking. This full-time PRT position focuses on delivering Social Science to students from classes 6 to 10, blending historical narratives with contemporary social issues relevant to Bihar’s regional context.
The role demands a strong grasp of the CBSE Social Science syllabus, including Indian history, geography, political science, and economics. Daily lessons must align with the prescribed textbooks while encouraging students to connect theoretical concepts with real-world examples from Bihar and beyond.
Lesson planning is a core responsibility, requiring the teacher to design weekly schedules that incorporate interactive activities, discussions, and multimedia resources. For classes 6 to 8, the focus will be on foundational concepts with hands-on learning methods, while older students (classes 9 and 10) will need more analytical exercises, case studies, and exam-oriented practice.
Assessment strategies will include periodic tests, project-based evaluations, and continuous observation of student engagement. The teacher must maintain accurate records of individual and class performance, providing constructive feedback to help students improve their understanding of historical timelines, political systems, and economic principles.
Classroom management is essential, especially in a diverse school setting. The teacher should maintain discipline through positive reinforcement, clear communication, and a structured approach to student behavior. Collaborating with subject heads and fellow teachers to ensure consistency in teaching methods and curriculum implementation is also important.
Professional development is expected, including participation in school-level workshops and staying updated on CBSE guidelines. The teacher will contribute to school events related to Social Science, such as model United Nations sessions or history quizzes, to enhance student interest in the subject.
Experience in teaching Social Science for at least three years is preferred, along with a graduate degree in the relevant field. While TET/CTET is not mandatory, candidates with these certifications will be considered. The school values educators who can inspire curiosity about India’s social fabric while preparing students for board examinations.
