The Uttar Pradesh Education Service Selection Commission (UPESSC) is hiring 17,735 Assistant Teachers (Graduate Pay Scale) for government-aided boys' and girls' schools across Uttar Pradesh. Eligibility depends on your graduate subject and a B.Ed plus TET qualification, so check the subject table in the notice. Online applications close on 23 November 2026. Apply well before the deadline, because the online form only accepts one final submission per post.

Who Should Apply for UPESSC Assistant Teacher Graduate Pay Scale 2026

This suits candidates with a graduate degree in a subject listed in the notice, a B.Ed or equivalent, and a passing TET, and it is not for those who only have a B.A. without the required subject-wise degree.

The exact qualification, age and other conditions are under Eligibility Criteria.

Watch Out Before You Apply

  • Your age is counted as on 1 July 2026, and applications showing a date of birth above 62 years are rejected, so check the age on your certificate first.
  • Upload a scanned signature and photo in the exact size and format the notice specifies, or your application may be cancelled.
  • Keep your TET and B.Ed certificates ready, because you must hold the required qualification by 30 June 2027 for the post you apply for.
  • Reserved-category candidates must upload the correct certificate in the prescribed format, and a certificate from a different state does not count.
