The Board of Intermediate and Secondary Education (BISE) Lahore has invited experienced teachers to serve as Paper Setters, Head Examiners, and Sub Examiners for the Annual Examinations 2027 (Secondary and Intermediate, Part I & II). The advertisement was issued by the Controller of Examinations. It seeks applications from qualified teachers of government institutions and institutions affiliated with BISE Lahore in the districts of Lahore, Kasur, Sheikhupura, and Nankana Sahib.
For teachers, this is more than a routine assignment. Working with the board’s examination system lets educators contribute directly to the fairness, accuracy, and credibility of one of Punjab’s largest public examination processes. Paper Setters design the question papers that thousands of students will attempt. Head Examiners supervise marking standards and guide the evaluation process. Sub Examiners assess answer scripts carefully and consistently. Every role requires subject expertise, integrity, and prior familiarity with board-level paper marking.
The notice sets clear and different eligibility conditions for each position. Paper Setter and Head Examiner roles are open only to teachers of government institutions. Paper Setters need 10 years of teaching experience and Head Examiners need 7 years. Both also need at least three years of experience marking board papers. Sub Examiner posts have more accessible requirements: at least two years of teaching experience in the relevant subject, plus the prescribed academic qualifications for the secondary or intermediate level.
Interested candidates must download the prescribed application form from the official website, www.biselahore.com. The form must be filled in carefully and verified by the head of the candidate’s institution. Applications on any other form, and unverified forms, will not be accepted. The completed forms must reach the Board Office by 15 October 2026, so eligible teachers should prepare their documents without delay.
