Kendriya Vidyalaya Sangathan (KVS), Ministry of Education, Government of India Contractual PRT, TGT, PGT & Non-Teaching Staff (Samvida Sathi Portal) – Academic Session 2026-27 Recruitment 2026
For the 2026-27 academic session, Kendriya Vidyalaya Sangathan has launched a centralised 'Samvida Sathi' portal for engaging contractual PRT, TGT, PGT and non-teaching staff across all Kendriya Vidyalayas in India. Instead of applying separately to individual schools, candidates create a single profile that is visible to all KVs, which then call qualifying candidates for walk-in interviews as and when contractual vacancies arise at their campus.

Important Notes
- This is CONTRACTUAL engagement, session-wise and renewable at the discretion of the individual Kendriya Vidyalaya — it is not a route to a permanent KVS teaching cadre post and carries no automatic regularisation.
- Registration on the Samvida Sathi portal does not guarantee a call for interview; it only makes your profile visible to KVs with an open contractual vacancy.
- Because the portal is rolling with no fixed all-India deadline, candidates should keep their profile updated and monitor status regularly.
