KVS NVS Tier 2 Exam Pattern 2026

• Duration: 2.5 hours (150 minutes), no sectional time limits.
• Total Questions: 70
• Total Marks: 100
• Objective Section: 60 questions × 1 mark each = 60 marks (negative marking of 0.25 marks per wrong answer).
• Descriptive Section: 10 questions × 4 marks each = 40 marks (focus on detailed, structured explanations, examples, pedagogy applications, and subject depth).
• Medium: Bilingual (English & Hindi), except language-specific posts (e.g., PGT English/Hindi or regional languages).
• Mode: Combination of OMR-based (objective) and pen-paper (descriptive).
• Nature: Qualifying for the next stage (interview/skill test where applicable); marks contribute to final merit.

• Total Marks: 100
• Duration: 2.5 hours (150 minutes, no sectional timing)

KVS NVS Tier 2 Syllabus 2026 – Subject-Wise Key Topics

• The Tier 2 syllabus is post-specific and draws heavily from NCERT/CBSE standards (Class 6-12 for TGT/PGT subjects), pedagogy frameworks, and education policies. Official PDFs detail exact topics per post (e.g., PGT Maths covers advanced algebra/calculus; PRT emphasizes primary-level basics + child development).

KVS NVS Selection Process 2026

• Tier 1: Qualifying/screening (objective MCQs, shortlisting in 1:10 ratio category-wise).
• Tier 2: Main exam (merit base, as detailed above).
• Interview/Skill Test: For select posts (e.g., teaching demo for PRT/TGT, panel interview for PGT/Principal; weightage 85:15 Tier 2 to Interview).
• Document Verification: Final stage for eligibility confirmation.
• Merit list prepared per reservation norms and vacancies.
