Overview
Sainik School Kalikiri, Annamayya District, Andhra Pradesh, under the aegis of the Sainik Schools Society, Ministry of Defence, Government of India, has invited eligible candidates for a Walk-in Interview for the temporary post of TGT (English). A total of 1 vacancy is available on a purely temporary basis for a period not exceeding 179 days. Sainik Schools are residential schools established with the primary aim of preparing cadets academically, physically, and mentally for a career in the Armed Forces through entry into the National Defence Academy and Indian Naval Academy, and this TGT English engagement supports the school's core academic teaching function on a short-term contract basis. Sainik Schools are affiliated to the Central Board of Secondary Education, New Delhi, and follow a structured academic curriculum alongside physical training and character development activities. A TGT English post at a Sainik School therefore carries responsibility not only for standard CBSE English language instruction but also for supporting cadets' written and spoken communication skills, which are directly assessed in NDA and other defence service entrance examinations and interviews. Selected TGT English will teach English language and literature to Sainik School Kalikiri cadets as part of the school's CBSE-affiliated academic curriculum, contributing to the broader Sainik School mission of removing regional imbalances in the Defence Services officer cadre and developing qualities of body, mind, and character in young students. Unlike a regular online or offline application process, this recruitment is conducted entirely through a walk-in interview format — eligible candidates report directly to the school campus with all required documents and are interviewed on the spot; there is no prior application submission stage. Given that only a single vacancy is on offer, candidates should prepare to demonstrate practical classroom teaching ability in addition to meeting the formal degree and CTET requirements. The appointment is purely temporary and does not carry the permanence or full service benefits of a regular Sainik School teaching post. Eligible candidates must report for the Walk-in Interview at Sainik School Kalikiri, Annamayya District, Andhra Pradesh, on 17 August 2026, by 8:30 AM. Candidates arriving after 9:00 AM will not be permitted to attend the interview, and no TA/DA is paid for attending. Candidates travelling from outside Annamayya district should plan their journey well in advance given the strict 9:00 AM cut-off, and should confirm the exact campus location and best travel route via the official website before setting out. Candidates must visit the official Sainik School Kalikiri website at sskal.ac.in/careers to check the detailed eligibility criteria for TGT English before appearing, and must carry all original certificates along with self-attested photocopies related to educational qualification, age, experience (if any), caste certificate (for ST candidates), and identity proof.

Prior teaching experience is preferable but not mandatory as per the advertisement.
