There are aspiring teachers in Uttar Pradesh who are trying to get fit into their desired teaching role. But many of them are not aware of the Uttar Pradesh government’s decision on merging the existing board into a common solo entity. 

Many UP aspirants have been facing confusion and delays in the recruitment process. With two separate boards responsible for teacher selections with its own rules—many applicants, especially newcomers, are unsure about which one to follow. 

The new selection board, called as, New Education Services Selection Commission. It will combine the work of both previous boards to simplify and expedite the teacher recruitment process.

The Old Teacher Selection Boards

Before the decision to merge, teacher recruitment was handled by two key boards:

1. UP Higher Education Services Commission (UPHESC): Responsible for recruiting assistant professors and other posts in higher educational institutions across the state.
2. UP Secondary Education Services Selection Board (UPSESSB): Focused on hiring TGT (Trained Graduate Teachers) and PGT (Post Graduate Teachers) for secondary schools.

Both boards have been working independently for years. However, candidates often faced long delays, with advertisements for job vacancies being posted, but exams taking months to be conducted. This was due to administrative slowdowns and other hurdles. The lengthy recruitment timeline not only frustrated candidates but also delayed the hiring of much-needed teachers in Uttar Pradesh.

The New Education Services Selection Commission

The formation of the New Education Services Selection Commission is a game-changer. This single commission will take over the responsibilities of the previous boards, combining their efforts to manage recruitment more efficiently. By doing so, the government aims to resolve the delays and ensure that the process of hiring teachers becomes more transparent and faster.

The new commission will handle the recruitment for:

• Primary School Teachers
• TGT and PGT positions
• Assistant Professors in Higher Education
• Technical and Sanskrit Teachers

This new board is expected to conduct all recruitment exams, ensuring a smoother process and better coordination.

What Will Change for Aspirants?

One of the major changes is that all teacher selection exams, from primary to higher education levels, will now be conducted under a single board. For many aspirants, this means a more straightforward and reliable recruitment process. It also means fewer delays, as the new commission is expected to be more efficient in carrying out exams and announcing results.

Additionally, the headquarters of this new commission will be located in Prayagraj, which was previously the base for the Secondary Education Services Selection Board. This location will make it more convenient for students to access the commission’s office in case of issues or concerns.
