The drive covers 33,320 teacher posts in Bihar government schools, spanning primary, upper primary, secondary and senior secondary levels. The commission first announced 32,388 posts and later raised the total by 932. The detailed level-wise and subject-wise distribution is given in the official notification.
Eligibility depends on the teaching level applied for. For Classes 1 to 5, candidates generally need Class 12 with the prescribed marks, a two-year Diploma in Elementary Education (D.El.Ed.) and the relevant Teacher Eligibility Test qualification. For Classes 6 to 8, the usual requirement is a bachelor's degree with D.El.Ed. or B.Ed. and the relevant TET. Senior levels follow the subject-wise qualifications laid down in the notification, so applicants should confirm their level's conditions before applying.
The extension follows a Supreme Court order dated 01-08-2025 in SLP (Civil) Diary Number 28464/2025 (Raman Kumar Mandal and Others versus State of Bihar and Others). Candidates covered by the specified court cases must hand in their details — name, father's name, mother's name, proof of date of birth, Aadhaar number and mobile number — at the BPSC office in Patna by 29-10-2026. Because fee payment closes on 02-11-2026, a day before the form itself, applicants should pay first and not leave either step to the final hours.
