The Delhi Subordinate Services Selection Board (DSSSB) has officially announced the commencement of the application window for filling 3,352 Post Graduate Teacher (PGT) positions across government and aided schools in the National Capital Territory. The recruitment drive represents one of the largest teaching appointments in recent years, opening doors for thousands of qualified educators seeking permanent positions in Delhi's school system.
Candidates can apply through the official DSSSB portal at dsssb.delhi.gov.in. The online application process requires aspirants to create an account, fill in personal and academic details, upload scanned documents including photographs and signatures, and pay the applicable application fee. Scheduled caste candidates are eligible for a concession in the application fee structure, while general category applicants must pay the full prescribed amount.
The position of Post Graduate Teacher involves handling classes from ninth through twelfth grade in specialized subjects such as physics, chemistry, mathematics, biology, English, Hindi, history, political science, economics, and other disciplines. Applicants must hold a master's degree in the relevant subject along with a bachelor's degree in education, or possess equivalent qualifying credentials as specified in the official notification.
The selection process will be conducted through a written examination followed by document verification. Shortlisted candidates will appear for a written test designed to evaluate their subject knowledge and pedagogical understanding. Successful candidates will receive appointment letters and be posted to schools across Delhi based on merit ranking and vacancy distribution.
This massive recruitment drive comes as the Delhi government works to strengthen its school education framework and address teacher shortages that have persisted in various districts. Education experts note that filling these positions promptly will significantly improve student-teacher ratios and enhance the quality of instruction in government-run institutions across the capital.
