The Bihar Education Department has released an important directive regarding the appointment of qualified physical education teachers who cleared the Samanta Pariksha-01 before 2012.

This decision ensures the smooth implementation of recruitment procedures and resolves previous ambiguities in the selection process.

Key Highlights of the Directive

Issuance of Appointment Letters

  • Physical education teachers who have successfully cleared the Samanta Pariksha-01 and were selected under the Bihar Primary Teacher Recruitment Regulations must receive their official appointment letters.
  • The directive mandates all district education officers to expedite the process to avoid further delays.

Clarification on Samanta Pariksha-02

  • Teachers who qualified in Samanta Pariksha-02 (after 2012) will be considered separately under new eligibility criteria.
  • Those who were already employed before 2012 but later appeared in the second exam will continue to hold their current status without interruption.

Recognition of Upper Primary School Teachers

  • Physical education teachers teaching from Grade 6 to Grade 8 will be recognized as senior teachers (upper quota) and will be granted appointment letters based on their prior qualifications.

Implementation and School-Level Adjustments

  • The directive instructs schools to align the newly appointed teachers with existing staff to ensure a seamless transition.
  • Necessary documentation and approvals must be completed at the district level for proper record-keeping.

This decision brings clarity to the appointment of physical education teachers across Bihar, ensuring that eligible candidates receive their due recognition and employment security.
