Bihar STET Exam 2026

The Bihar Secondary Teacher Eligibility Test (STET) is a state-level examination conducted by the Bihar School Examination Board (BSEB). Its primary purpose is to determine the eligibility of candidates for teaching posts in government and government-aided secondary and higher secondary schools across Bihar. The BSEB STET 2025 exam was conducted from 14 October 2025 to 16 November 2025 in a Computer-Based Test (CBT) format, and the result was officially declared on 5 January 2026.

Why Is the BSEB STET Certificate Important?

The Bihar STET Certificate is one of the most important documents for aspiring teachers in Bihar. Without it, candidates cannot apply for teaching vacancies in the Bihar government secondary and higher secondary schools (Classes 9–12). It officially confirms that the holder has qualified for the eligibility test and is authorised to teach at those levels.
