SuperTET.com Editorial Policy: Verification Standards

Source Hierarchy & Evidence Standards

At SuperTET.com, factual accuracy is not an afterthought; it is our primary operating foundation. When publishing information regarding the UP Super TET (Assistant Teacher Selection Examination), our editorial team adheres to a strict source hierarchy:

1. Primary Tier 1 Sources (Official): Official notifications, gazette advertisements (such as Advt. No. 05/2026), corrigenda, press communiqués, and official syllabi published directly on the Commission's portal (upessc.up.gov.in) or by the Basic Education Department, Government of Uttar Pradesh.
2. Judicial Decisions (Official Legal): Binding rulings from the Hon'ble Supreme Court of India (e.g., the August 11, 2023 judgment in Devesh Sharma vs. Union of India regarding primary teacher eligibility) and the High Court of Judicature at Allahabad.
3. Secondary Sources (Leads Only): Media reports, press conference statements, and competitor claims are treated strictly as unverified leads. No factual figure is updated on this portal until confirmed against an authentic Tier 1 document.

Fact Badging System: Complete Clarity

To eliminate ambiguity, every key exam statistic displayed on SuperTET.com carries one of three explicit status labels:

• Official Official: Verified directly against an official government notice or UPESSC advertisement that our editorial team opened and verified.
• Expected Expected: A reasoned pedagogical estimate based on statutory timelines, historic patterns, or administrative precedent, with the underlying reasoning explicitly stated.
• TBA TBA (To Be Announced): The Commission has not officially released or confirmed this data point. We state "TBA" rather than fabricating numbers.

Editorial Independence & Commercial Separation

SuperTET.com operates with absolute editorial independence. We are completely unattached to any private coaching institute, publication house, or political entity. Our study materials and mock tests are developed in-house by our teachers and offered freely to aspirants.

Advertisements shown on the platform, when active, are served via compliant networks and are strictly segregated from editorial content. Sponsored posts or "paid exam predictions" are completely prohibited.

Two-Teacher Peer Review Process

No article goes live on SuperTET.com without a dual sign-off. High-impact topics—such as eligibility criteria, age calculations, reservation percentages, and legal qualifications—must be verified by both Teacher Ajay Khakat and Teacher Charu. Each guide visibly displays both the primary author and the reviewing fact-checker.

Update & Corrigendum Cycle

Exam notifications are dynamic. When UPESSC publishes a corrigendum (for example, extending the application deadline from 24 October to 04 November 2026), our editorial team immediately updates the central facts repository, flushes page caches, and records the revision in our public changelog. Readers are encouraged to report any suspected discrepancies through our Corrections Policy.
