The Uttarakhand Board of School Education (UBSE) has released an official notification for Uttarakhand Teacher Eligibility Test (UTET) 2026 for selection of teachers in class 1 to 5 (UTET-I) and class 6 to 8 (UTET-II) in all the government school of Uttarakhand. Eligible candidates may apply online through the official UTET website ukutet.com from 14th July 2026 till the last date of application submission 09th August 2026 for Uttarakhand Teacher Eligibility Test (UTET) 2026.
Get an instant breakdown of eligibility, category-wise vacancy distribution, syllabus highlights, and preparation strategy tailored for this notice.
While the UTET is a qualifying exam rather than a direct recruitment, it is the mandatory gateway for all government teaching roles in Uttarakhand. A common pitfall is the confusion between UTET-I and UTET-II eligibility; ensure your B.Ed or D.El.Ed credentials align strictly with the class level you are targeting to avoid disqualification during document verification. Given the tight window between the application deadline and the September exam, focus your preparation on the official syllabus immediately after submitting your form.
