7 posts, one deadline: 6 November

Sainik School Kodagu, at Kudige in Kushalnagar taluk of Karnataka, has opened recruitment for 7 posts under advertisement number 07/OCT 2026. The vacancies mix regular teaching posts with contractual support posts, and the window is short — the completed application must reach the school by 6 November 2026, just eight days from today.

This is the third Sainik School recruitment drive this month that we have covered — Chittorgarh (5 posts, last date 7 November) and Rewari (5 posts, last date 6 November) came earlier — but Kodagu is the one with the widest mix: four teaching posts, one nursing post and two support posts. If you are a trained teacher or a nursing professional looking for a residential-school posting, this is the one to check first.

Who can apply

The bar differs sharply by post, so check yours before you spend money on a demand draft:

How to apply — offline only, and the post matters

There is no online form. Download the prescribed application format from the school website, fill it carefully, attach self-attested copies of your photograph, signature, ID proof and certificates, and enclose the demand draft. Then send it by Registered Post or Speed Post to:

The Principal, Sainik School Kodagu, Village & Post: Kudige, Taluk: Kushalnagar, Kodagu District, Karnataka – 571 232

Two traps to avoid. First, applications delivered by hand are not accepted — the notification says so explicitly, so do not plan a personal visit to drop the form. Second, post it early: the deadline is the date the form must reach the school, not the date you post it. With 6 November falling on a Friday, posting on 4 November is the sensible last safe day for most of India.

The fee is Rs. 500 for General/OBC and Rs. 350 for SC/ST, paid by demand draft drawn in favour of The Principal, Sainik School Kodagu.

What happens after you apply

Selection involves a written examination, followed by a skill test and interview, and a class demonstration or practical test as applicable to the post. Dates for the test and interview are intimated to candidates, so keep the contact details on your form current and watch the school website after the deadline.

One honest note: this article is based on the notification as reported by two job portals. The official PDF on sainikschoolkodagu.edu.in is the final authority on eligibility, reservation and the application format — if anything here differs from the PDF, the PDF wins.
