Atal Awasiya Vidyalaya Samiti, Uttar Pradesh Recruitment 2026: 02 Principal Vacancies

This role is ideally suited for highly experienced and retired Principals from prestigious Jawahar Navodaya Vidyalayas or Sainik Schools. Candidates must be 65 years of age or younger as of March 31, 2026, and in good health. Preference will be given to those with a track record of receiving awards for their service, demonstrating exceptional leadership and contribution to education. A willingness to serve on a contractual basis for an initial period of one academic year is essential.

Individuals who have not served as a Principal in a Jawahar Navodaya Vidyalaya or Sainik School are not eligible. Those exceeding the age limit of 65 years by the cut-off date should not apply. Applicants seeking permanent government employment will find this contractual position unsuitable, as it is offered initially for a one-year term.

This position offers a significant opportunity for seasoned educational leaders to contribute to a state-backed initiative in Uttar Pradesh aimed at establishing quality residential schools. While a contractual role, it provides a platform to leverage extensive experience to mentor and lead in the Atal Awasiya Vidyalaya system, contributing to educational development at the state level. The role carries the prestige associated with leading a government educational institution.
