BHU Teaching Recruitment 2026

BHU Teaching Recruitment 2026 is currently in its selection phase, not its application phase — if you're searching for this hoping to still apply, here's the honest answer first: applications closed on 5 January 2026. What's actually new right now is that Banaras Hindu University has rescheduled the Computer-Based Test (CBT) for several TGT and PGT posts under Advertisement No. 24/2023–2024. Exams originally set for 16 August 2026 have been moved to 13, 14, and 15 September 2026, after candidates who'd applied for multiple posts found their exam dates overlapping. If you already applied for Principal, PGT, TGT, or PRT posts at BHU's schools, this is what you need to know.

1. Current Status — Applications Closed, CBT Rescheduled

If you already submitted your application, the rest of this page covers exactly what's changed and what to expect next.

2. Revised CBT Schedule — September 13, 14 & 15, 2026

The reason behind the change is straightforward: candidates who applied for more than one post found their CBTs scheduled on the same day, making it impossible to appear for both. BHU spread the exams across three separate dates so each applied-for post now gets its own slot. Keep checking the official BHU website for your specific post's exact date and any revised admit card, since the split hasn't been detailed post-by-post in the public notice.

4. Vacancy Details — 55 Posts Across Principal, PGT, TGT, PRT

The 55 posts span all four categories — Principal, Post Graduate Teacher, Trained Graduate Teacher, and Primary Teacher — across various subjects including English, Mathematics, Urdu, Sanskrit, Social Studies, Science, Hindi, Home Science, Music, and Physical Education. The exact post-wise and subject-wise split was published in the original notification PDF on bhu.ac.in/rac.

5. Eligibility Criteria (Post-Wise)

A. Educational Qualification

Requirements vary by post and subject: a Master's degree in the relevant subject with B.Ed for PGT/TGT posts, a 4-year integrated degree from NCERT or a Bachelor's degree with CTET qualification for PRT posts, and a Master's degree with B.Ed plus a minimum of 15 years' teaching experience for the Principal post.

B. Age Limit

6. Selection Process

Selection runs through a Computer-Based Test (for the posts and candidates it applies to), followed by a presentation or skill assessment where relevant, a personal interview, and final document verification. Since the CBT stage is exactly what's been rescheduled, candidates should treat their revised September date as the next concrete milestone to prepare for.

7. Salary & Pay Scale (7th CPC)

Selected candidates also get on-campus housing where available, medical facilities at Sir Sunderlal Hospital (IMS BHU), and Leave Travel Concession, on top of standard DA, HRA, and TA.

8. A Note on Outdated Information Online

Worth flagging directly: if you're searching for this topic, you may come across pages dated 2024 or otherwise disconnected from this specific Advertisement No. 24/2023–2024 cycle — some older, similarly-titled BHU teaching recruitment pages are still indexed and can be mistaken for current information. Always check that the advertisement number and dates on any source match what's listed here, and when in doubt, cross-check directly against bhu.ac.in/rac rather than relying on a search result's title alone.
