Prayagraj, Jan 12: The process for large-scale teacher recruitment in Uttar Pradesh is set to gain momentum, with the Uttar Pradesh Education Service Selection Commission (UPESSC) preparing to launch its
e-requisition portal later this week.
Once the portal goes live, the Directorates of Higher Education and Secondary Education will be able to submit online requisitions for vacant teaching posts.
Portal testing completed
According to officials, technical testing of the portal has been completed by the National Informatics Centre and the Commission. Testing by the Secondary Education Department has also concluded, while the Higher Education Department is expected to complete its review shortly.
After approval, requisitions will be scrutinised and placed before the Commission’s meeting, following which vacancy notifications will be issued.
Around 24,000 posts proposed
The proposed recruitment covers around 24,000 posts across aided colleges and aided secondary schools. These include approximately 950 assistant professor posts and about 100 principal posts in aided colleges.
In aided secondary schools, vacancies include nearly 1,500 principals, around 1,000 headmasters, about 2,700 postgraduate teachers (PGT), and more than 16,100 trained graduate teachers (TGT) and assistant teachers.
Additionally, nearly 1,890 assistant teacher posts are proposed for affiliated primary schools.

Recruitment process to begin
The absence of an e-requisition portal had delayed recruitment since the formation of the Commission. With its launch, the formal recruitment process is expected to begin. However, recruitment in certain other categories may take more time due to pending regulations.
