WBBSE Appointment: Finally, Board Issuing Appointment Letters for 166 Teacher Posts on Supreme Court Order, See When and Where to Go

WBBSE Appointment: The long wait is finally coming to an end for 166 job aspirants in the state. Following a landmark directive from the Supreme Court, the West Bengal Board of Secondary Education (WBBSE) has decided to distribute appointment letters to these candidates. In this regard, the Board issued a detailed notification (Memo No: 311/Sec/Appt-Cell-B/25) on 1st November 2025. This is a significant step in the School Service Commission recruitment case, bringing a ray of hope into the lives of many candidates.

The notification has published a complete list of 166 candidates and instructed them to collect their appointment letters from the Board’s office on the specified date.

Case Background and Supreme Court’s Directive

This move by the West Bengal Board of Secondary Education is a direct result of a judgment by the Supreme Court of India. The notification clearly states that this appointment process is being conducted based on the order in the Special Leave Petition (Civil) No. 9586 of 2024.

The case was titled Baisakhi Bhattacharya (Chattopadhyay) vs State of West Bengal & Others. In light of this case, the West Bengal Central School Service Commission (WBCSSC) recommended a total of 166 candidates for teaching posts (ATGRAD and ATPG). Based on that recommendation, the Board of Secondary Education is now arranging for the distribution of appointment letters.

When and Where to Collect the Appointment Letter?

According to the Board’s notification, all candidates whose names are on the list must be physically present at the specified date and time to collect the hard copy of their appointment letter. The necessary details are provided below:

• Date: 06th November 2025 (Thursday)
• Reporting Time: 12:00 Noon
• Venue: Derozio Bhawan, 1st Floor, Meeting Hall, Nivedita Bhawan Campus
• Address: West Bengal Board of Secondary Education, DJ-8, Sector-II, Salt Lake, Kolkata-700091

What Important Documents to Carry?

Candidates must carry certain essential documents with them when they go to collect their appointment letters. The notification mentions a total of 7 items, which are listed below:

1. Recommendation Letter issued by the WBCSSC.
2. Approval letter from the concerned DI(S) for the 2016 selection process.
3. Previous appointment letter issued by the concerned school authority (if the candidate is from a pre-2016 selection process).
4. Approval letter from the concerned DI(S) (if the candidate is from a pre-2016 process).
5. Proof of date of birth (e.g., Birth Certificate or Madhyamik Admit Card).
6. Any one photo identity proof (e.g., EPIC/AADHAR Card/PAN/Driving License).
7. Two recent passport-sized colour photographs.

A Stern Warning from the Board

The Board has also issued a stern warning at the end of the notification. It has been clearly stated that, “Failure to collect the appointment letter on the specified date and time will be treated as non-compliance, and the responsibility for this will lie entirely with the concerned candidate.” Therefore, it is mandatory and extremely crucial for the 166 listed candidates to be present at the Board’s office at the designated time on November 6th.
