Sainik School Nagrota, Jammu, has opened a small but genuinely new recruitment drive: three posts, three completely different skill sets, one shared deadline. The notification — Advt No. EN 31/61, published in Employment News — invites offline applications for a TGT in Computer Science, an Art Master, and a Nursing Sister (Female). All three posts are contractual.
Here’s the thing: this is not part of the four-school November roundup we published on 30 October. Nagrota’s drive surfaced separately, on 31 October, with its own deadline — 20 November 2026 — so if you were tracking the Kodagu, Rewari, Chittorgarh and Goalpara deadlines, add this one to the list. Our 30-post November deadline roundup covered those four schools; this is a fifth school, three more posts.
| Post | Posts | Age limit | Pay |
|---|---|---|---|
| TGT (Computer Science) | 1 | 21 to 35 years | Pay Matrix Level-7 (Rs 44,900 to Rs 1,42,400) |
| Art Master | 1 | 21 to 35 years | Rs 35,000 per month (consolidated) |
| Nursing Sister (Female) | 1 | 18 to 50 years | Rs 25,500 per month (consolidated) |
Age is counted on the last date of receipt of the application, and applications received after the last date will be rejected. The headline salary range for the drive — Rs 25,500 to Rs 1,42,400 a month — simply spans the lowest consolidated post to the top of the TGT pay matrix; your actual pay depends entirely on which post you are applying for.
TGT (Computer Science): A Bachelor’s degree in Computer Application (BCA) with at least 50% marks, or graduation in Computer Science/IT with at least 50% marks; qualification in CTET-II or STET; and a B.Ed. from an NCTE-recognised institution, or a three-year integrated B.Ed.-M.Ed., or a four-year integrated degree with at least 50% marks. Desirable extras include a higher qualification, a computer course in networking, IT, AI or machine learning, experience teaching in an English-medium residential school, and proficiency in English, games or sports.
Art Master: A Master’s degree in Fine Arts with a Painting specialisation, or a graduate degree with Fine Arts/Art/Drawing and Painting plus a minimum four-year diploma, or a Higher Secondary/Senior Secondary certificate with a minimum five-year full-time (or seven-year part-time) diploma in Fine Art.
Nursing Sister (Female): A B.Sc. (Nursing) or Nursing Diploma from a recognised institute, registration with the Indian or State Nursing Council, and a minimum of two years’ experience working in a hospital or clinic.
These are contractual appointments, not regular posts. The initial engagement is for one year — 11 serving months plus one month’s break — extendable annually up to a maximum of three years. And the notification is explicit: contractual staff have no claim or right to a regular appointment. That matters if you are comparing this with, say, the regular TGT posts at Chittorgarh. Nagrota is a good posting, but it is a fixed-term one.
No application fee is mentioned in the notification summary — but do confirm that in the PDF itself before you post, since a missing fee (where one is required) is one of the commonest reasons applications get rejected.
If Nagrota fits your qualification, this weekend is the time to act: download the form, check your eligibility line by line against EN 31/61, and post early enough that the 20 November receipt deadline is comfortable, not tight. And if you are tracking other Sainik School jobs, Kodagu and Rewari closed on 6 November, and Chittorgarh and Goalpara have closed since — Nagrota, closing 20 November, is now the earliest live deadline.
How many posts are open at Sainik School Nagrota in this drive?
Three posts in three roles: one TGT (Computer Science), one Art Master and one Nursing Sister (Female), all contractual, under Advt No. EN 31/61.
