Overview
Bihar STET Online Form 2026:- Bihar STET 2026 (Advt. No. P.R. 183/2026) is conducted by the Bihar School Examination Board to determine the eligibility of candidates for secondary (Classes 9–10) and senior secondary (Classes 11–12) teaching posts in the state. It is not a direct recruitment — clearing STET makes you eligible to apply for teacher vacancies (such as BPSC TRE) whenever they are announced. The exam is held in Computer-Based Test (CBT) mode and has two papers: Paper-I and Paper-II. Applications started on 17 August 2026 and the deadline has been extended to 15 September 2026.
