The Rajasthan Public Service Commission (RPSC) has officially released the notification for the recruitment of 2nd Grade Teachers in 2025, announcing a total of 6,500 vacancies to be filled across government schools throughout Rajasthan. The recruitment drive marks one of the largest teacher hiring exercises in the state's history and opens a significant opportunity for aspiring educators across the country.
The notification has been published on the official RPSC website at rpsc.rajasthan.gov.in, and the online application process is now open for eligible candidates. The commission has laid out detailed eligibility requirements, selection procedures, and important timelines that aspirants need to carefully review before submitting their applications.
Under the RPSC framework, the post of 2nd Grade Teacher corresponds to teaching positions in upper primary and secondary level government schools in Rajasthan. Candidates appointed to these posts will be responsible for delivering instruction in subjects such as Hindi, English, Science, Mathematics, Social Science, and other disciplines depending on their specialization and qualification. The role carries substantial responsibility, as these teachers form the backbone of Rajasthan's public education system, serving students in remote and semi-urban areas alike.
The eligibility criteria require candidates to hold a bachelor's degree from a recognized university and a Bachelor of Education (B.Ed.) degree or an equivalent teaching qualification approved by the National Council for Teacher Education (NCTE). The age limit is typically set at 18 to 40 years for general category candidates, with statutory relaxations applicable for Other Backward Classes (OBC), Scheduled Castes (SC), Scheduled Tribes (ST), and differently-abled candidates as per Rajasthan state government norms.
The selection process comprises a written examination conducted by the RPSC, followed by document verification. The preliminary and main examination stages test candidates on subject-specific knowledge, pedagogical understanding, and general awareness relevant to the teaching profession. The commission reserves the right to modify or clarify certain procedural aspects in the official notification, and candidates are advised to refer to the original advertisement for authoritative information.
The announcement comes at a time when Rajasthan has been actively working to address long-standing teacher shortages in its vast network of government schools. Education experts have noted that filling these 6,500 positions will significantly bolster teaching capacity in rural and underserved regions of the state, potentially improving student-teacher ratios and learning outcomes across multiple districts.
Aspiring candidates are urged to apply well before the deadline, ensure all supporting documents are in order, and regularly check the RPSC website for any updates or corrections related to the recruitment process.
