Shala Darpan Internship 2026: Final Allotment Chance
The January 2026 Deadline: Why This is Your Absolute Last Opportunity
The Rajasthan School Education Council has reopened the Shala Darpan portal from January 23 to January 26, 2026, for the final internship allotment. This window is the last chance for B.Ed., D.El.Ed., and integrated trainees to lock school choices and avoid a year-long delay in their teaching credentials.
This phase specifically targets B.Ed 1st Year, D.El.Ed (BSTC), and 3rd/4th Year Integrated students. Many were left “unallotted” in Round 1 due to high competition in urban blocks or insufficient choice filling. Since this is the concluding window for the 2025-26 session, failing to submit now will stall your REET eligibility and final degree progress.
Step-by-Step Guide to Filling Choices (Correction Module 2026)
To fix a previous “No Allotment” status, you must use the Candidate Login on the official portal. If you’ve misplaced your credentials, use the ‘Search User Name’ tool; you’ll need your mobile number and college district.
- The “15 School” Rule: Don’t just pick 2 or 3 nearby schools. You must list a minimum of 15 schools. Start with your preferred local schools, but include at least 5 “rural” or “backup” schools to guarantee an allotment.
- Choice Locking: A common mistake is clicking ‘Save’ but forgetting to click ‘Lock.’ Unlocked choices are often ignored during the final processing. Ensure you see the “Locked Successfully” confirmation.
Critical Troubleshooting: Why Your Name Might Be Missing
If the portal shows “No Record Found,” your college likely missed the October 2025 data upload deadline. You must contact your institute HOD immediately to ensure your profile is active in the 2026 database.
Furthermore, if you encounter a “Private School Selection” error, it typically means your profile is incorrectly tagged. Verify that your district and block preferences align exactly with your registered teaching subject and college-provided credentials.
Common Errors to Avoid (Jan 23–26)
- Browser Issues: Avoid using mobile browsers for PDF generation. Use a desktop with Chrome or Firefox to ensure the school list populates correctly.
- Session Timeouts: Captcha errors occur if the page sits idle. Complete your list in a notepad first, then quickly input and lock it.
How to Check Your Allotment Status & Download the Letter
Post-January 26, visit the ‘Allotment Status’ tab. Enter your roll number and academic year to access your PDF. You typically have 7 to 10 days to report to the assigned school.
Mandatory Joining Kit:
- College Relieving Letter (Original)
- Portal Allotment Letter (Printout)

Expert Insights: The Cost of Missing the Jan 26 Deadline
Missing this window is critical. No “Special Rounds” are scheduled for the 2025-26 session; the portal transitions to session-end processing after January 26. A missed internship delays your final marksheet and disqualifies you from upcoming REET exams. If you remain unallotted despite filling 15+ choices, visit your District Education Officer (DEO) with your application summary to request a manual adjustment.
