Bihar State Teacher Eligibility Test (STET) 2026 is an important eligibility examination for candidates planning to teach at the secondary and higher-secondary level in Bihar. The examination is conducted by the Bihar School Examination Board (BSEB). Candidates waiting for the 2026 cycle should rely on the fresh BSEB notification for registration dates, eligibility, subjects, examination schedule and other instructions rather than assuming that dates from an older STET cycle will continue unchanged.

STET is a teacher eligibility examination. Qualifying STET establishes eligibility subject to the recruitment rules; it does not itself appoint a candidate as a government teacher.
Generally intended for eligibility for teaching at the Secondary level for the relevant notified subjects.
Generally intended for eligibility for teaching at the Senior Secondary level for the relevant notified subjects.
Candidates must possess the subject-specific academic and teacher-training qualification prescribed by BSEB for the paper and subject selected.
The graduation/post-graduation subject and teacher-training qualification must correspond to the subject eligibility conditions prescribed in the official notification.
The applicable B.Ed. or other recognised teacher-training qualification depends on the paper, subject and rules prescribed for the examination.
Eligibility of candidates awaiting a qualifying result must be determined from the applicable STET notification rather than assumed from a previous cycle.
Qualifying STET should not be confused with final recruitment. Appointment to teacher posts takes place through the recruitment process and eligibility rules applicable at that time.

STET does not advertise a fixed number of government teacher vacancies because it is an eligibility examination.
The examination is used to determine teacher eligibility for the subjects and levels covered by the applicable notification.
Actual teacher vacancies are announced separately through Bihar teacher recruitment notifications.
Passing STET does not guarantee appointment. Candidates must separately satisfy the conditions of the teacher recruitment for which they apply.
No 'STET vacancy count' should be displayed because STET itself is not a vacancy-based recruitment examination.

When applications open, candidates should use only the payment methods provided through the official BSEB/STET application portal.
Bihar STET generally covers separate papers for secondary and senior-secondary teaching eligibility, with subject-wise educational requirements. Before submitting an application, candidates should carefully match their graduation or postgraduate qualification, teacher-training qualification and chosen subject with the eligibility conditions published for that paper. The application form, correction facility, examination schedule and candidate login are also controlled by BSEB for the applicable examination cycle.
Latest status: A date should be treated as a Bihar STET 2026 date only after it appears in an official BSEB notice. Candidates searching for the Bihar STET 2026 notification, application form or examination date should therefore check the latest board notice before applying or paying a fee. This page will continue to cover the recruitment/notification side of the Bihar STET 2026 cycle without presenting an older notice as a fresh announcement.
