For CTET-November 2012, candidates can apply online through CBSE website www.cbse.nic.in or www.ctet.nic.in till August 31, 2012.

The Ministry of Human Resource Development (MHRD) has entrusted the responsibility of conducting the Central Teacher Eligibility Test (CTET) to the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) Delhi.

This year, the CBSE will be conducting the C TET Exam held on November 18, applications for which will be available online from August 1 to 31.

The rationale for including the TET Exam as a minimum qualification for a person to be eligible for appointment as a teacher is that it would bring national standards and benchmark of teacher quality in the recruitment process and also induce teacher education institutions and students from these institutions to further improve their performance standards.

Schools under state governments will go by the Teacher Eligibility Test (TET). However, state governments can consider CTET scores for appointing teachers if they do not conduct a TET.

Only 6,137 candidates of the 1.40 lakh candidates who appeared for Teachers’ Eligibility Test (TET) could clear the exam. This takes the result to 3.45% for the TET - for the primary section.

In mathematics, around 14.78% students and in social science, around 7.83% of students passed the exam.

The TET exam was conducted on July 8, 2012. Academicians say, such low number of passing raises concerns of quality of education. “If such low number of students could clear the exam, what they were taught in primary teacher certificate (PTC) colleges is a matter of concern,” asked one of the senior academicians.

Students who have done a degree, diploma or certificate course in primary education are eligible to appear for the TET. Candidates who clear the TET become eligible to become teacher in primary school.
