I) Eligibility criteria for Candidates for appearing at TET
a) The candidate at the time of applying for TET should be in possession
of the minimum qualifications prescribed for a teacher for category of I
to V classes (Paper I) and VI to VIII classes (Paper II) separately in
NCTE notification New Delhi, 23rd August 2010.
b) Candidate seeking appointment for a medium in a school should opt
that language of the medium as Language I under TET for Paper I. He
should have studied at least up to Class X either in that medium or
studied that language as first language at least up to Class X under
state syllabus. In respect of CBSE/ICSE the second language of Class
X (out of two equivalent languages studied) is also considered as first
language as both languages in CBSE/ICSE Class X have equal
weightage in terms of marks, syllabus, periods in time table etc. The
following examples will clarify the doubts on eligibility criteria.
Ex i): A candidate who studied in Telugu medium in Class X (State
syllabus) is eligible to opt for Telugu under Language I of
TET Paper I or TET Paper II or for both.
Ex ii): A candidate who studied in English medium in Class X
(State syllabus) with Telugu as first language in Class X is
also eligible for Telugu medium teacher post. Hence he is
permitted to choose Telugu under Language I of TET Paper
I or II or both.
Ex iii): A candidate who studied in CBSE syllabus, two languages
English & Telugu for Class X is also eligible for Telugu
medium teacher post because he studied Telugu as one of
the two equivalent languages in terms of weightage of
marks, content, periods in Time Table etc. Hence he is
permitted to choose Telugu under Language I of TET Paper
I or II or both.
Ex iv): A Candidate who studied in English medium in Class X
(State Syllabus) with Hindi as I Language is not eligible for
Telugu Medium (T.M.) Teacher post (but he is eligible for
Hindi Medium teacher post). Hence he can choose Hindi
under Language I of TET Paper I or II or both.
Ex v): A Candidate who studied in Urdu Medium in Class X (State
Syllabus) with Urdu as I Language and Telugu as II
Language is not eligible for T.M. Teacher post(but he is
eligible for Urdu Medium Teacher Post). Hence he is
permitted to choose Urdu under Language I of TET Paper I
or II or both.
c) The eligibility criteria from (a) to (b) above are criteria for TET only. But
Government shall impose additional qualifications over and above
these qualifications, specific to a teacher’s post at the time of
