Last verified: 12 November 2026. Everything below about the post, eligibility, age limit, selection process and deadline is REPORTED by a recruitment portal listing published on 5 November 2026 — it is the only source carrying the details so far, and the school’s own homepage confirms a vacancy section exists but the fetched page text does not carry the notification details. Do not treat any figure here as confirmed by the school: read the official notification on sainikschoolpunglwa.nic.in before you apply, and count your deadline from the Employment News publication date printed on that notification.

Sainik School Punglwa — the Sainik School at Punglwa in Peren district, Nagaland — has advertised a Nursing Assistant post. The listing appeared on 5 November 2026, and it says the advertisement has been published in Employment News. That last detail matters more than it looks: the last date is not a calendar date in the listing. It is within 21 days of the Employment News publication date.
So the first thing any interested candidate should do is not fill the form. It is to open the official notification on the school’s website, sainikschoolpunglwa.nic.in, and find the Employment News date printed on it. Count 21 days from that date. That is your deadline.
| Detail | As reported | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Post | Nursing Assistant | REPORTED |
| School | Sainik School Punglwa, PO Punglwa B.O, Dist Peren, Nagaland – 797114 | REPORTED |
| Qualification | 10+2 or equivalent, with a Diploma in Nursing or a Nursing Assistant course from a recognised institution | REPORTED |
| Experience | Relevant experience in a school, hospital or similar institution preferred | REPORTED |
| Age limit | 18 to 50 years as on the closing date; relaxation as per government norms | REPORTED |
| Selection | Written test, then skill/practical test, then interview | REPORTED |
| Application mode | Offline, by post | REPORTED |
| Last date | Within 21 days of the Employment News advertisement | REPORTED |
| Pay scale | As per 7th CPC or school norms | REPORTED, vague |
A word on the pay scale: “as per 7th CPC or school norms” is what the listing says, and it tells you almost nothing about the actual monthly figure. The official notification is the only place the real pay will appear. Do not budget on this line.
The application is offline. Download the application form from the school’s official website, fill it, and send it by post with self-attested copies of your testimonials, a passport-size photograph, and a demand draft if the notification asks for one. The school’s address, as given in the listing, is: Principal, Sainik School Punglwa, PO Punglwa B.O, Dist Peren, Nagaland – 797114.
Two practical points. First, postal applications take days, and the 21-day window includes that transit time — post early, and keep the speed-post receipt. Second, Sainik School recruitment notices routinely say no TA or DA is paid for appearing in tests or interviews, and that the school can cancel a vacancy; check whether this notification says the same before you travel.
This is the honest part. Most recruitment stories on this site come from the school’s own notice, reproduced in full. This one does not — yet. One recruitment portal is carrying the details, the school’s homepage shows a vacancy section but the fetched text does not include the notification itself, and no second independent source has picked it up. That is why every fact above says REPORTED, and why the strongest advice in this article is boring: verify on the official website before you spend money on a demand draft or a postal envelope.
That caution applies doubly to the deadline. If the Employment News advertisement appeared on, say, 1 November, the window closes around 22 November. If it appeared a week earlier, you may already be late. Only the notification itself settles it.
Sainik Schools advertise support-staff posts through the year — teaching and non-teaching, regular and ad hoc. Our November recruitment deadlines round-up listed the posts open across schools this month, and Sainik School Purulia’s walk-in interview on 23 November covers three teaching posts for candidates who can attend in person. For parents rather than job-seekers, the AISSEE 2027 notification explainer has the admission dates that matter right now — applications close on 2 December.
