The School Education Department Punjab has fixed one schedule for all districts, including Lodhran. Here is where things stand right now:
| Stage | Date and status |
|---|---|
| Online applications closed | 18 October 2026 (11:59 PM) – Closed |
| Initial merit list displayed | 23 October 2026 – Out on school notice boards |

Where to See the STI Merit List in Lodhran
There are three places where you can follow the Lodhran STI lists:
- School notice board: The initial merit list for each seat is pasted on the notice board of that school in Lodhran. This is the main source from 23 October.
- Tehsil education office: Tehsil-level committees in Lodhran, Dunyapur and Kahror Pacca handle objections, so their offices are also a good place to ask questions.
- STI portal: The final merit list will be shown on the official portal at sti.pesrp.edu.pk on 31 October 2026, and agreement letters will be issued there on 2 November.
Always take a photo of the full list, including the date and school name at the top. You will need this if you decide to file a complaint.
Tehsils Covered in Lodhran District
Lodhran is part of Multan Division and has 3 tehsils: Lodhran, Dunyapur and Kahror Pacca. Every government primary, elementary and high school in these tehsils that advertised STI seats will show its own list.
| Tehsil | Where to check |
|---|---|
| Lodhran | Notice board of the school you applied to in Lodhran; objections at the Lodhran tehsil committee |
| Dunyapur | Notice board of the school you applied to in Dunyapur; objections at the Dunyapur tehsil committee |
| Kahror Pacca | Notice board of the school you applied to in Kahror Pacca; objections at the Kahror Pacca tehsil committee |
Lodhran lies between Multan, Bahawalpur and Vehari, and some candidates from those cities apply here too. City schools in Lodhran usually see higher merit than schools in Dunyapur and Kahror Pacca.
How STI Merit Is Calculated in Lodhran
The merit formula is the same in Lodhran as in the rest of Punjab. Your score is out of 100 and is mostly based on your academic record:
| Component | Marks |
|---|---|
| Matric (SSC) | 15 |
| Intermediate (HSSC) | 15 |
| Graduation / highest degree | 55 |
| Professional qualification (B.Ed, M.Ed or ADE) | 10 |
| Interview | 5 |
| Total | 100 |
Let us take a simple example. If you got 900/1100 in Matric, 780/1100 in Intermediate and 3.00/4.00 CGPA in your BS, your academic score is about 12.3 + 10.6 + 41.3 = 64.2. With a B.Ed (10) and an interview score of 4, your total becomes about 78. For more detail, see our STI merit calculator and the STI merit formula guide.
Since most of the score comes from your degree, a small difference in graduation marks can move you several places up or down the Lodhran list. Check that the portal has picked up your marks correctly.
STI Stipend for Selected Interns in Lodhran
| Seat level | Monthly stipend |
|---|---|
| Primary (ESE) | Rs. 38,000 |
| Elementary (SESE) | Rs. 40,000 |
| High and Higher Secondary (SSE) | Rs. 45,000 |
The internship runs from 3 November 2026 to 31 May 2027. It is temporary and will not be converted into a permanent job, but you will receive an experience certificate at the end, which helps in future teaching jobs.
