Overview:
iTeach Schools is a fast-growing community of transformational schools providing a high-quality and free education to secondary students. We operate nine Grades VIII to X schools across Pune and PCMC, and a unique College to Career program. (Breeze through our six-year journey here, or get a peek into a typical school day here!)

Our students belong to Pune’s most under-resourced households. We strive to give them a fighting chance at college, career, and citizenship, through which they can lift themselves and their families out of poverty. We are known for our stellar results, world-class Professional Development, exciting leadership opportunities, and nurturing work culture. Currently, we serve 2000 students and 1350 student alumni through a strong team of nearly 170 staff members. In the academic year 2022-23, we are growing our impact and are looking for exceptional individuals to lead these efforts!
