UP TGT PGT Recruitment Process and Updates
UP TGT PGT Recruitment 2025 will be conducted by the Uttar Pradesh Education Service Selection Commission. Directorate of Education will upload all the available vacancies on the online portal of the Commission once that is finalized. The recruitment data is to be verified and certified by each District Inspector of Schools before the submission.
The notification for direct recruitment will include posts vacant up to March 31, 2026. Once approved, online applications will be invited from candidates to register, upload documents, and submit their district preferences.
Policy and Administrative Updates
The state government has issued orders to cancel such affiliations, if unauthorized, and revert the employees to their previous postings, an attempt towards streamlining the administration and bringing in fairness in recruitment.

While this happens, thousands of teachers appointed on a B.Ed. basis in primary schools face ongoing challenges. The Supreme Court had ordered them to undergo a six-month bridge course through NIOS, which is recognized by the National Council for Teacher Education. Failing to do so in a year may invalidate their appointments.
UP Teacher Recruitment Application Process
The application procedures for UP TGT PGT Recruitment 2025 will soon be opened on the official website. The candidates should have all their educational documents ready and follow the latest updates by the Directorate. Applications would be invited via online mode to ensure the transparency of the process and make it accessible to all applicants in the districts.
