The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) has reopened the online application facility for certain Kendriya Vidyalaya Sangathan (KVS) and Navodaya Vidyalaya Samiti (NVS) posts until December 15, 2025, up to 11:59 PM. This facility is available only for candidates who had already completed their online form and fee payment under Recruitment Notification 01/2025.
No fresh registrations are allowed in this reopened window, as the regular application process, which had already been extended once, closed on December 11, 2025. Existing applicants can now log in and apply for additional posts for which they newly meet the eligibility criteria in either KVS or NVS.
The joint recruitment campaign seeks to fill over 15,000 vacancies for a wide range of roles including:
Principals and Vice-Principals
Non-teaching roles such as Assistant Section Officer, Stenographer, Lab Attendant and more.
This large-scale recruitment reflects the ongoing need to staff India’s central government schools with qualified professionals and follows earlier reporting that thousands of teaching positions in KVS and NVS remained vacant.
Candidates must complete their application by 11:59 PM on 15 December 2025 through the official recruitment portal. Specific steps include:

Before the CBT, applicants are advised to check their registered email and mobile for exam city slips, admit cards and any updated instructions.
