Cambridge Educators & Academic Practitioners Foundation Phase (Ahmedabad)

We are in the process of building a serious, education-first Cambridge school in Ahmedabad.

This is not a franchise, not a marketing-led institution, and not a copy-paste international school model. Our background lies in long-term institution building, with a clear and uncompromising emphasis on:

academic depth over optics

systems over shortcuts

calm, disciplined learning environments over activity overload

The intent is to build a school that becomes a reference model for Cambridge education in the cityquietly, credibly, and sustainably.

Where We Are Right Now

The school is currently in its foundation and design phase.

Academic sessions are not starting immediately.

At this stage, we are not appointing a Principal or Director.

We are looking to engage with experienced Cambridge educators who can help us:

think through the academic model

shape curriculum and subject structures

define teaching standards and systems

establish what a well-run Cambridge school should look like from day one

Who We Are Looking For

We are seeking to connect with educators and academic practitioners who have hands-on experience working in Cambridge schools in Ahmedabad, and who are interested in contributing meaningfully to the creation of a school, not just its operation.

The engagement could evolve into roles such as:

Academic Core Team Member

Cambridge Programme Contributor

Senior Academic Advisor

Foundation-Phase Academic Lead (title to be defined later)

This can be full-time, fractional, or advisory, depending on fit and availability.

What We Need in the Person

Essential experience

Direct experience within a Cambridge (CAIE) school in Ahmedabad

Strong exposure to IGCSE (mandatory)

Exposure to AS/A Levels (preferred, not compulsory)

Practical involvement in areas such as:

teaching and assessment practices

Cambridge curriculum delivery

academic planning and subject structuring

understanding student and parent expectations

Personal orientation

Clear, grounded thinking

Comfort working in an unstructured, early-stage environment

Ability to distinguish between what looks impressive and what actually works in schools

Interest in institution-building rather than titles or quick outcomes

Important clarification

You do not need to have held a senior designation such as Principal, Vice-Principal, or Director.

If you are an educator who believes your experience, judgement, and Cambridge exposure equip you to help build a strong role-model school, we are open to that conversation.

Important Note

This opportunity is not suited for:

CBSE-only or IB-only backgrounds without Cambridge depth

Education consultants selling setup packages

Candidates looking only for immediate leadership titles

Those without Ahmedabad-specific Cambridge school experience

Next Step

Educators who feel aligned may connect via LinkedIn with a brief note outlining their Cambridge experience in Ahmedabad and their interest in contributing during the foundation phase.

All conversations will remain confidential and exploratory.
