AP DSC 2026 Important Dates

AP DSC 2026 District-Wise Vacancies
- The 26-district breakup below covers 2,461 regular and special education posts. Society vacancies (260 posts) are counted separately, not added to any district in this table. Kurnool has 404 posts, followed by Prakasam (291) and YSR Kadapa (227).
AP DSC Societies Vacancies 2026
- These posts are under residential education societies, model schools and the Welfare of Differently Abled, Transgender and Senior Citizens Department. The vacancy distribution varies by society and cadre.
Who Can Apply for AP DSC 2026? Eligibility Criteria
- Educational qualifications are post-specific and governed by the relevant recruitment rules and Information Bulletin. Applicants should not assume that qualification for SGT also qualifies them for SA, TGT, PGT, Principal, PD, PET or Special Education posts.
- Check the appropriate bulletin for the required academic degree, professional teacher-training qualification, subject or medium, TET eligibility where applicable, and any special education recognition requirements. The notifications direct candidates to the Information Bulletin for the complete post-wise qualifications. Applicants must meet the prescribed qualifications by the applicable notification cutoff; check the relevant bulletin before paying the fee.
AP DSC Age Limit 2026
- Age is calculated as on 1 July 2026. The detailed notifications provide an ordinary upper limit of 44 years, with higher limits for specified reserved categories.
AP DSC Application Fee 2026
- The application fee is ₹1,000 for each post. Candidates applying for more than one post should check the relevant application instructions and the total payable amount before submitting payment. The official payment window runs from 11 to 30 November 2026.
AP DSC Selection Process and Minimum Qualifying Marks
- The selection method depends on the post. The regular SA (except Physical Education) and SGT notifications specify aggregate TRT (80%) and qualifying TET (20%) marks. The societies notification specifies TRT (80%) and TET (20%) for TGT, while Principal, PGT, PD and PET qualifying marks are based on TRT (100%). Do not apply the same weightage mechanically to every post.
- These are minimum qualifying thresholds, not guaranteed selection cutoffs. The societies notification also provides an English Language Proficiency screening test for Principal, non-language PGT and non-language TGT candidates: 60/100 marks for OC, BC and EWS; 50/100 for SC, ST, PwBD and ex-servicemen. The notification excludes TGT Special Education (Special Schools) from this English screening test.
- The Special Education notification separately provides certain eligible service candidates with service weightage of 0.5 marks per completed year, up to 5 marks, subject to the stated conditions and overall maximum. Candidates must refer to that notification for eligible service categories and proof requirements.
