14. Important Instructions

Advertisement No. 15/2026 dated 22.09.2026 cancels Advertisement No. 14/2026 dated 18.08.2026; use the revised advertisement.
Reservation benefits under the advertisement are available only to eligible Bihar-domicile candidates and require the prescribed valid certificates.
The applicant must select only a subject for which the relevant Teacher Eligibility Test has been passed; if more than one relevant subject has been passed, one subject may be selected as allowed by the advertisement.
Candidates eligible for more than one class group must state priorities in one application. Once selected against a higher priority in result processing, lower priorities become irrelevant as described in the advertisement.
Under the cited 2024 School Teacher service-rule amendment, a candidate may participate in this recruitment examination a maximum of five times.
Under the Education Department notification cited in the advertisement, 40% of School Teacher vacancies are to be filled from candidates who passed Matric or Intermediate from educational institutions located in Bihar; if sufficient eligible candidates are not available against that 40%, the remaining such vacancies may be filled from eligible candidates of the corresponding category under the other vacancy pool, as stated in the notification.
Profile details can be corrected by unlocking before final submission as permitted. After applying for an advertisement, details for that advertisement cannot be changed; post/subject changes after payment require cancellation and restarting the process where the portal permits.
Cancelled payment/application amounts are not refundable, and chargeback claims for cancelled transactions are not accepted.
Payment alone is not enough: Final Application Form Submit must also be completed, otherwise candidature is not treated as complete.
Keep the registered email ID and mobile number active and secure until final result; use only the candidate’s own contact details.
Certificates relied upon for qualification, experience, TET and reservation must satisfy the issue-date rules; certificates issued after the application closing date are not accepted unless an official extension changes the relevant deadline.
Do not send hard copies to BPSC unless specifically asked; candidature is verified from the online application and documents.
An application print lacking Application Number, Application ID and Bar Code is not treated as completely submitted.
The Commission may revise/reject candidature after Education Department verification if online claims and documents do not match.
The number of vacancies may change if the Education Department revises its requisition.
BPSC states that examination may be conducted in more than one phase depending on candidate volume; Advertisement 15/2026 itself specifies the objective written-paper pattern but does not publish an exam date.
No re-evaluation is provided for the objective written examination.
District allotment is to be made by the Administrative Department / Education Department; the revised advertisement does not print a 38-district preference rule in its 24 pages.
