Important Dates
| Event | Date |
|---|---|
| Advertisement No. 15/2026 published | 22 September 2026 |
| Online application starts | 25 September 2026 |
| Vacancy corrigendum adding 932 posts | 29 September 2026 |
| Last date for fee payment | 25 October 2026 |
| Last date to submit online application | 26 October 2026 |
| Written examination | To be announced |
| Admit card | To be announced |
Candidates should treat the fee deadline and final submission deadline as separate checkpoints. A payment attempt alone does not necessarily mean the TRE 4.0 application has been finally submitted.
Educational Qualification
Eligibility is teaching-level and subject specific. The recruitment covers Primary, Middle, Secondary and Higher Secondary teaching posts, so one qualification rule does not apply to all 33,320 vacancies.
| Teaching level | Qualification pattern candidates should verify |
|---|---|
| Classes 1–5 | Senior Secondary/Graduation route with the prescribed elementary teacher-training qualification and applicable teacher-eligibility requirement |
| Classes 6–8 | Graduation/Post-Graduation with the prescribed D.El.Ed./B.Ed./integrated teacher-training route and subject combination |
| Classes 9–10 | Relevant Graduation/Post-Graduation subject combination with prescribed teacher-training qualification and applicable eligibility-test requirement |
| Classes 11–12 | Relevant Post-Graduation/accepted subject-specific qualification with prescribed teacher-training qualification and applicable eligibility-test requirement |
Depending on the post and subject, the notification may require D.El.Ed., B.Ed., integrated teacher-education qualifications, CTET, BTET, STET or another prescribed qualification/eligibility route. Computer Science, language, arts, physical education and special-school-teacher posts can have separate qualification pathways.
Candidates should therefore match their exact degree, subject combination, teacher-training qualification and eligibility-test certificate against the relevant clause of Advertisement No. 15/2026 before selecting a post.
Age Limit
The minimum age differs by teaching level. Category-based upper age limits and additional relaxations apply under the recruitment rules.
| Candidate / Teaching level | Age rule |
|---|---|
| Primary & Middle School Teacher | Minimum 18 years |
| Secondary & Higher Secondary Teacher | Minimum 21 years |
| Unreserved male | Maximum 37 years |
| Unreserved female | Maximum 40 years |
| BC / EBC, male and female | Maximum 40 years |
| SC / ST, male and female | Maximum 42 years |
| Transgender candidates | Maximum 42 years |
The minimum-age reference is 1 August 2026. Candidates claiming PwD, government-service, ex-servicemen or other special relaxation should use the exact provision in the official advertisement and supporting certificate.
Use the Regal Naukri Age Calculator to calculate your exact age on the notified cut-off date, then compare the result with the official category rule.
Application Fee
BPSC has a separate fee-payment deadline of 25 October 2026. Candidates should check the amount displayed for their category and application on the official BPSC portal before payment, including any applicable portal, bank or identification-related charge.
After payment, retain the transaction confirmation. Then return to the application and make sure the form reaches final submission before 26 October 2026.
Pay and Selection Process
The recruitment includes different teaching levels, so a single combined base-salary number would be misleading for all 33,320 posts. The latest corrigendum specifically identifies basic pay of ₹31,000 per month for the added Classes 9–10 School Teacher posts and ₹32,000 per month for the added Classes 11–12 School Teacher posts, along with applicable benefits under state rules.
| Stage | Details |
|---|---|
| Written examination | Objective-type competitive examination under TRE 4.0 |
| Result / merit | Based on the applicable BPSC recruitment rules |
| Document verification | Required for shortlisted/successful candidates |
| Appointment/allocation | Subject to eligibility verification and Education Department process |
The examination date has not yet been announced. Candidates should follow later BPSC notices for the exam schedule, admit card and any syllabus/exam-instruction update.
