Faculty
A school is its teachers. Those of Shiva International Residential School come from across Himachal Pradesh and from other states; every teacher holds a degree in the subject taught and a professional qualification in teaching, and all attend the training programmes conducted by the Board through the year. They are appointed for what they know, for how they carry a classroom, and for the care they take of the children in it.
The senior section is coordinated by Ms. Ruchi Arora and the junior section by Ms. Anjali Mahajan. A special educator and a counsellor are on the staff. Sport, music, art and dance are taught by staff appointed for those subjects, and not as an afterthought to the timetable.
The list below is for the 2026–27 session, as filed with the Board.
