Uttar Pradesh Revises Assistant Teacher Eligibility, Relaxing Graduation Marks Requirement
The Uttar Pradesh Education Service Selection Commission (UPESSC) has revised eligibility criteria for Assistant Teacher recruitment, exempting candidates admitted to B.Ed., B.El.Ed., or equivalent courses before July 29, 2011, from minimum graduation marks requirements. This change aligns with National Council for Teacher Education guidelines and applies to government-recognised secondary schools. Eligible candidates must apply by the existing deadline, November 23, 2026, with an application correction window until November 26. Application fees vary by category, and candidates should consult official notifications for details.
