SSC Teaching Experience: SSC’s Big Move! Who Got Called for 10 Marks on High Court’s Order? Check the Full List

SSC Teaching Experience: In a significant development in the School Service Commission (SSC) teacher recruitment process, a new chapter has begun for several candidates. Following a directive from the Calcutta High Court, the Commission has initiated the process of awarding an additional 10 marks for teaching experience. A notice regarding this was published by the commission on 4th November 2025, calling specific candidates for document verification.

This step is crucial for the job aspirants, as these 10 marks could significantly alter the merit list rankings.

Background of the Case

This entire process stems from a verdict by the Calcutta High Court. According to the source, orders were passed in favour of these candidates from the bench of Hon’ble Justice Sougata Bhattacharyya on 23rd September 2025 and 14th October 2025. The Commission has issued the verification notice in compliance with these orders.

Initially, many experienced candidates did not mention their service details during the application process due to the lack of a specific option or the fear of their application being cancelled for providing incorrect information. They later approached the court, and the single bench ruled in their favour. Although the Commission challenged this decision in a division bench, the justices ultimately sided with the petitioners.

Who Has Been Called for Verification?

As per the notice, the specified petitioner-candidates have been asked to appear at Acharya Sadan (Bidhannagar, Sector – II) on 6th November 2025, at 11 AM with all supporting documents. If their documents are verified and it is proven that they have been working in substantive posts, they will be awarded 2 marks for each year of experience, up to a maximum of 10 marks.

The Division Bench Hearing and Broader Implications

The Commission had challenged the single bench’s order in a division bench. Senior Advocate Kalyan Banerjee argued on behalf of the Commission. The Commission’s stance was why the petitioners approached the court two months after the application deadline had passed.

On the other hand, the petitioners claimed that there was no specific option in the application form to provide experience details and they feared their candidature might be cancelled for providing wrong information. After a lengthy hearing, the division bench upheld the single bench’s order.

This incident also has a broader implication. It is known that around 2,500 candidates from Central Government schools (like Navodaya Vidyalaya, Army Public Schools) have also applied for these experience marks. If this large number of candidates also receive the additional 10 marks, it goes without saying that the competition for jobs will intensify significantly.
