Share
In a major reclamation action, the Central Board of Secondary Education has launched its 2026 Direct Reclamation crusade, inviting applications for a wide range of non-teaching, executive, and academic-support posts across India. The online operation window opened on December 2, 2025, and will remain active until December 22, 2025. Interested and eligible campaigners must complete their enrollment and make payment by 11:59 PM on the final day of the operation window.
The reclamation drive offers an aggregate of 124 vacancies, gauging multiple groups (A, B, and C) and covering posts from elderly-position to inferior-position places, including Assistant Secretary, Assistant Professor & Assistant Director (in Academics, Training, and Skill Education aqueducts), Accounts Officer, Supervisor, Junior Translation Officer, Junior Accountant, and Junior Assistant.
Under the group-wise breakdown, the vacancies include eight posts for Assistant Secretary; 12 for Assistant Professor & Assistant Director (Academics); eight for Assistant Professor & Assistant Director (Training); seven for Assistant Professor & Assistant Director (Skill Education); two for Accounts Officer; 27 for Supervisor; nine for Junior Translation Officer; 16 for Junior Accountant; and 35 for Junior Assistant. The different blend underscores CBSE’s plan to bolster executive effectiveness, academic support capacity, and functional operations across its services nationwide.
Eligibility criteria vary by post. For elderly-position places like Assistant Secretary, a bachelor’s degree is needed; aspirants must also be under 35 years of age. For the assistant professor & assistant director positions (across academics, training, and skill education), eligibility hinges on having a postgraduate degree with at least 55 percent marks (or the original grade) from an honored university. Preference could be given to campaigners holding advanced qualifications similar to a B.Ed/M.Ed, NET/SLET instrument, NET-JRF, or a PhD. For these places, the upper age limit is generally 30. Other posts similar to Accounts Officer, Superintendent, Junior Accountant, or Junior Assistant have their own separate qualification and experience conditions.
The selection process will unfold in multiple stages. Campaigners will first appear in a league-1 test (MCQ-grounded primary webbing), followed by league-2—an objective plus descriptive written main examination. Depending on the post type, successful campaigners may also have to suffer interviews, skill tests, or other evaluation rounds. Pay situations for these posts will be as per the 7th Central Pay Commission, ranging from lower to advanced situations depending on the bracket of the post (Group A/B/C).
Operation freights have been structured according to group and aspirant order. For Group A posts, unreserved, OBC, and EWS campaigners must pay ₹ 1,750; for Group B and C posts, the figure is ₹ 1,050. Campaigners from SC, ST, PwBD (Persons with Benchmark Disability), women, and ex-servicemen orders are pure from regular freights, though they must pay a nominal processing figure of ₹ 250 for all groups. Payment of the operation figure must also be completed by the deadline through online modes similar to debit/credit card, net banking, or UPI.
CBSE has emphasized that only online operations submitted through the sanctioned gate will be accepted—no other mode of submission will be entertained. The Board has also clarified that the number of vacancies announced is conditional; the final number may increase or drop depending on executive opinions. Likewise, officers have stated that named campaigners may be posted at any of the CBSE services across India, buttressing the all-India nature of the reclamation drive.
For numerous campaigners, this reclamation action represents a significant occasion. Those seeking stable government-combined places in education administration or academic support—including individuals with postgraduate qualifications or applicable training credentials—may find these positions especially seductive. The blend of elderly, mid-level, and inferior places allows aspirants across educational backgrounds and career stages to explore employment options.
The timing of this reclamation drive also appears strategic. With growing emphasis on education quality, executive oversight, training, and skill development, CBSE is expanding its internal capacity. By retaining new staff across colorful departments and specializations, the Board can strengthen its institutional structure, support forthcoming enterprise, and ensure smoother performance across regions.
For prospective aspirants, time is of the essence. The final date to submit the operation form and pay the figure is December 22, 2025 (11:59 PM). Missing the deadline or trying to apply via any other mode will render the operation invalid. Campaigners are advised to precisely check their eligibility, educational qualifications, and age criteria before submitting the operation.
Beyond eligibility, applicants should be ready to download the admit card for League 1 examination (whenever the board schedules it) and to follow instructions for posterior rounds—League 2, chops test (if any), and interview or verification. Given the competitive nature of central-position reclamation, preparedness and thorough attestation will be crucial to success.
The launch of CBSE’s DRQ 2026 marks a major reclamation drive, offering 124 positions across situations and functions, ranging from academic-executive places to pastoral and support staff. For numerous job campaigners looking for stability, a base in education administration, or a chance to contribute to a commanding public board, this drive offers a promising occasion. As long as campaigners act instantly and apply rightly, the coming weeks could present career-defining prospects under one of India’s premier education institutions.
For those interested—ensure you complete your operation and figure payment before 22 December 2025, and prepare for the multi-tiered selection process that lies ahead. Stylish luck to all aspirants.
