🏫 Role of School Principal – Verification Process
The School Principal plays a critical role in the entire Guest Teacher registration process. Here's what Principals need to do:
- Log in to Educationportal3.in using the School's login credentials.
- Download/access the application profile printout from the candidate.
- Cross-check all details entered by the candidate against original documents: educational certificates, B.Ed all semester marksheets, MPTET certificate, etc.
- After verification of original documents, complete the Online Satayapan (verification) on the portal. The OTP for this will be received on the Principal's registered mobile number.
- In case of any discrepancy, Reject the application. The candidate's profile will automatically unlock for corrections, and the candidate can re-submit for verification before the deadline.
- Principals must NOT verify incomplete training qualifications (e.g., B.Ed where only 1 year is complete) or documents from non-recognized institutions.
- Strict disciplinary action will be taken against Principals found to have conducted faulty or negligent verification.
📊 Score Card Generation
The Score Card for the session 2026-27 will be generated only after the School Principal completes the portal-based Satayapan (verification) of the candidate's profile and documents. Key points:
- Score Card will NOT be generated for candidates who do not complete document upload and Principal verification within the deadline.
- After Satayapan, if the candidate wishes to update additional qualifications, they can unlock their profile via OTP — but this must be done before the final deadline.
- If a Principal rejects a profile due to discrepancy, the candidate's profile auto-unlocks. The candidate must correct the information and re-submit for verification before the last date.
- Photocopies of all verified documents will be stored in the school's office records for future reference.
