DAV School Staff Recruitment 2026: CBT Registration for Teaching & Non-Teaching Posts

CBT Session 2027-28

DAV College Managing Committee (DAVCMC)

DAV School Staff Recruitment 2026: DAV College Managing Committee (DAVCMC) has opened centralised CBT registration for teaching and non-teaching posts across DAV Public Schools for the 2027-28 session. DAV zones/schools are advertising vacant posts in newspapers between 16 and 22 September 2026; centralised online registration opened 16 September 2026 and closes 08 October 2026. The process runs in three phases — registration/verification, the CBT, and a school-level demo/interview — so clearing the CBT is only step one. Register through the official DAV Recruitment website, or the link in Important Links below.

Important Dates

• 08 October 2026 is only the deadline to submit as “FORM READY FOR VERIFICATION” — the form stays editable till then.
• Final, locked submission happens only when a DAV Verification Centre marks it “VERIFIED AND APPROVED FOR PAYMENT” (25 Sep–16 Oct 2026).
• The 7-day fee-payment window starts from that verification date — not from 08 October.
• Admit card, exam and result dates above are indicative months only; exact dates aren’t announced yet.

Keep checking our site for latest updates or you can also join our telegram or WhatsApp channel to get notifications.

Age Limit

DAVCMC hasn’t published one common age limit centrally. Age criteria, where applicable, are set by the individual school/zone — check your specific advertisement. Note: Age relaxation applies as per government/DAV rules, where specified by the school/zone.

Application Fee

• No fee at the time of registration.
• Rs. 300/- becomes payable only after your form is “VERIFIED AND APPROVED FOR PAYMENT” at a DAV Verification Centre.
• You get 7 days from that point to pay online on the DAV Recruitment website.
• Only paid candidates are permitted to sit for the CBT.
• Schools may charge a separate, nominal handling fee at the Phase 3 (demo/interview) stage.

DAV School Staff Recruitment 2026 – Eligibility

Not centrally confirmed for 2027-28, but this qualification pattern is consistent across recent DAV cycles and current job-alert coverage — a general guide only:

• Some zones have added extra conditions in the past: a minimum percentage, CBSE/ICSE teaching experience, or a specific NCTE-recognised course.
• None of this is guaranteed to apply this year.
• Always confirm the exact qualification against your own school/zone’s advertisement before registering.

DAVCMC’s central website lists the posts/subjects under CBT 2027-28 but not the required qualification — that’s set by each school/zone’s own advertisement (16–22 September 2026). Posts covered:

DAV School Staff Recruitment 2026 – Vacancy

No single central figure exists. Every DAV zone/school decides and advertises its own openings separately (16–22 September 2026), so the number and post-mix varies by state and school.

Check the zone-wise newspaper advertisement in Important Links, or the official list of DAV schools, to find exact open positions before registering.

DAV School Staff Recruitment 2026 – Selection Process

Three distinct phases, each handled by a different body:

1. Phase 1 – Registration & Verification (candidate + school): Online registration, document verification at a DAV Verification Centre, CBT fee payment.
2. Phase 2 – CBT (DAVCMC): Exam centre preference, admit card issue, and the CBT itself, conducted by DAVCMC’s CBT Coordination Team.
3. Phase 3 – Demo/Interview (individual schools): Schools with vacancies advertise separately for a demo and interview round among CBT-qualified candidates.

• You choose your CBT exam centre online in November 2026 — first-come-first-served, so verify and pay early.
• Results are expected within 15–20 days of the last CBT conducted.
• Qualified candidates can then download a Provisional Eligibility Card (PEC).
• The PEC is not a job offer — it only makes you eligible for a school’s Phase 3 demo/interview round.
• Final employment depends on clearing that demo/interview.

DAV School Staff Recruitment 2026 – CBT Exam Pattern

The pattern shown on the official website is last year’s; DAVCMC says 2027-28’s pattern may change and will be notified in November 2026. Based on what’s published now, CBT 2027-28 is one 90-minute, two-paper computer-based test, held back-to-back:

• Exam Mode: CBT, held in one of three shifts (morning/afternoon/evening) per your assigned centre and slot.
• Language: Paper 1 is English only. Paper 2 is English, except for Regional Language, Hindi and Sanskrit posts.
• Negative Marking: None, under the current pattern.

Entry closes before the CBT starts — arriving after your shift’s entry window can mean losing the attempt entirely.

Carry to the centre:

• Printed admit card
• One recent passport-size colour photograph
• Original government photo ID matching the admit card (PAN, Driving Licence, Voter ID, Passport or Aadhaar/e-Aadhaar)

Not allowed inside:

• Calculators, printed/written material, pen drives
• Smartwatches, mobile phones, earphones, cameras
• Wallets, handbags
• Opened or packed food (except for diabetic candidates)

DAV School Staff Recruitment 2026 – Salary

No common salary or pay-scale figure is published for CBT 2027-28. Clearing the CBT only makes you eligible for the Phase 3 demo/interview — actual pay is set by the individual DAV school that selects you. We’ll update this section once official pay information is released.

How to Apply

Step-by-step guide to apply for DAV School Staff Recruitment 2026

1. Check your state/school’s advertisement: Confirm vacant posts and exact qualifications via the newspaper ad (16–22 September) or the zone-wise link in Important Links.
2. Register on the DAV Recruitment website: Use your own RMN and email ID — needed again for verification, admit card and PEC.
3. Submit as “Form Ready for Verification”: Before 08 October 2026. Still editable at this point.
4. Visit a DAV Verification Centre: Print the form and bring original testimonials, 25 September–16 October 2026.
5. Get “Verified and Approved for Payment”: Form locks; payment option activates.
6. Pay the CBT fee within 7 days: Rs. 300/- online. Required to sit for the CBT.

Remember:

• One post per candidate — duplicate applications won’t be accepted.
• You can’t appear at a centre where you, your spouse, or a relative works.
• Keep your registered mobile number and email ID unchanged — verification, admit card, and PEC all depend on them matching.
