**Job Description

At Neev, learning is both the guiding principle and the outcome of our purpose, culture, and workplace—creating a lighthouse of learning in India. Teachers plan and design learning influenced by an understanding of students’ prior knowledge, identities, background, needs and context. They bridge the learning, by bringing the world into their classroom or taking the students across to an environment where they experience the learning. Thus, students construct meaning and make sense of the world through the interplay of asking, doing and thinking, leading to open, democratic classrooms. Teachers engage in cycles of inquiry, action and reflection that lead to deeper understanding and lifelong learning. Teachers meet programme requirements in accordance with the accrediting agencies. They approximately spend 60% to 70% of their time in direct instruction/contact with students and 40% to 30% in preparation, grading, feedback, meetings, vigilance, and other responsibilities.
