STI Jobs 2025 Last Date Extended Up to 24 November 2025 – Login and Apply
The School Education Department has shared an important update for all applicants of the School Teacher Internship (STI) Jobs 2025-2026. The last date to apply online has now been extended up to 24 November 2025. This gives candidates more time to complete their online form and submit their documents on the STI Portal.
This update is helpful for many applicants who faced issues in the first days of the online process. Some candidates could not submit their form because of slow internet, wrong UC details, or missing documents. Now they have extra time to fix their details and apply without stress.
This article explains the full update in simple words. It also guides candidates on what to do before the new deadline.
What Is the New Deadline?
The new and updated last date for STI applications is:
24 November 2025
Before this update, the last date was 21 November 2025.
The government has given three extra days to make the process easier for everyone.
All applications must be submitted online through the official portal:
No paper forms or manual submissions are allowed.
Why the Last Date Was Extended
The date was extended for simple reasons that affect many candidates.
1. Heavy traffic on the portal
During the first few days, many students and graduates tried to apply.
The portal was slow at times.
Extra time helps everyone apply smoothly.
2. UC information confusion
Many applicants did not know their correct Union Council name and number.
They needed time to check their UC list from the LGCD Punjab website.
3. Document issues
Some applicants had issues with scanned copies, wrong data entry, or missing certificates.
The extension helps them fix these problems.
4. Fair chance for all areas
In some districts, candidates received the information late.
Extending the date gives equal chance to every district and tehsil.
What Candidates Should Do Before 24 November
Here is a clear checklist that will help you submit your form without any mistakes.
1. Check your UC Name and Number
This is important because the STI policy gives preference to local candidates from the same village, mouza, or UC.
You can find your UC from this official link:
👉 https://lgcd.punjab.gov.pk/ucs_in_district_councils
Make sure the UC you enter in the STI form matches the one on the website.
2. Select the correct schools
Do not select random schools.
Choose schools that are close to your home.
Local candidates have higher chances of selection.
3. Enter correct academic marks
Check your marks carefully.
Wrong marks may lower your merit or cause rejection.
4. Upload clear documents
Your scanned documents must be clear.
Avoid blurry or dark images.
5. Check your CNIC number and contact details
These must be correct because the portal uses them for:
- Merit lists
- Interview letters
- Hiring orders
6. Apply early
Do not wait until the last day.
Apply as soon as possible to avoid any issue on the final day.
What This Update Means for Merit Lists
The new deadline affects the overall schedule.
Because of the extension, some dates may shift slightly.
But the process will continue almost the same.
Below is the expected flow after applications close:
Provisional Merit List
Will be displayed after applications close.
Schools will show the list on their notice board and on the STI portal.
Complaint Days
Candidates can correct mistakes during the complaint days.
Interviews
Shortlisted candidates will be called for interviews.
Final Merit List
Schools and the STI portal will display the final list.
Hiring Orders
Selected candidates will get hiring orders online.
Even if some dates shift by a day or two, the general process will remain the same.
Why This Update Matters for Candidates
This update gives all candidates more time, but it also has deeper effects on the selection process.
1. More chances for late applicants
Many students were still collecting documents.
Now they can apply comfortably.
2. Higher competition
More candidates can apply now, so merit may rise.
You must enter your data carefully.
3. Better accuracy
With more time, candidates are less likely to make mistakes in their forms.
4. Clear focus on local candidates
Since the government is giving more time, students in remote areas can now apply easily.
This supports the local-first policy announced by the Education Minister.
What to Avoid During Application
Many candidates lose marks or face rejection because of simple mistakes.
Avoid problems by following these rules:
- Do not enter wrong UC information.
- Do not upload unclear documents.
- Do not use someone else’s email or phone number.
- Do not leave any field blank.
- Do not wait until the last minute.
What Happens After 24 November
Once the portal closes on 24 November, no one can apply.
The next steps will begin:
1. Data checking
Schools will check data for errors.
2. Provisional Merit List
This will show your academic marks and ranking.
3. Complaints
You can fix mistakes during complaint days.
4. Interviews
Only shortlisted candidates will be called.
5. Final Merit List
This is the main list for selection.
6. Hiring orders
Selected candidates will receive orders on the portal.
Simple Tips to Improve Your Merit
You cannot change your degree marks now, but you can avoid mistakes.
- Enter correct marks.
- Keep your documents ready.
- Select schools in your own UC.

- Prepare for the interview.
Even small mistakes can drop your ranking, so take care.
