|---|---|
| PGT Physics | Master’s degree in the subject with at least 50% marks (or an integrated PG course with B.Ed. component), and a B.Ed. from an NCTE-recognised institution, or a 3-year integrated B.Ed.-M.Ed. with 50%; ability to teach in English medium |

| TGT Hindi | Same degree and B.Ed. routes as TGT English with 50% marks; Hindi as a subject in all three years of the degree |
| TGT Social Science | Any two subjects: History with one of Geography, Economics or Political Science, or Geography with one of History, Economics or Political Science, each with at least 50% marks and 50% in graduation; Geography or History studied in all years of graduation; competency to teach through English |
| Nursing Sister | Nursing diploma or degree AND 5 years’ experience, OR an ex-serviceman of the Medical Assistant trade with at least 5 years’ service after training |
| Ward Boy | Matriculation (10th pass) or equivalent |
The three TGT posts also list a CTET Paper-II or TET pass as desirable. If you are selected without it, you must submit the certificate within one year from the start of probation, otherwise your service will be terminated. Preference also goes to candidates with 2 years of teaching experience in a CBSE-affiliated English medium school, preferably residential, plus higher qualifications and NCC, sports or extra-curricular achievements.
For Nursing Sister, desirable points are minimum 3 years in a Gynecology department, computer and typewriting skill, health record maintenance and fluent English. For Ward Boy, a National Skill Development or other government-recognised course certificate is preferred.
One thing to check: the TGT Social Science section prints no B.Ed. line, unlike the other TGT posts. We report it exactly as printed, so confirm with the school before you apply. Teachers can also look at teaching and faculty jobs, and nurses at medical and healthcare jobs.
Age Limit
| Post | Age (as on 06 Nov 2026) |
|---|---|
| PGT Physics | 21 to 40 years |
| TGT English, Hindi, Social Science | 21 to 35 years |
