Aspirants need high scores in CTET
For appointment to schools in the UT
Henceforth, teacher aspirants need to score a high percentage of marks in Central Teacher Eligibility Test (CTET) conducted by the Central Board of Secondary Education to be considered for appointment in schools in the Union Territory of Puducherry.
“Hereafter, only the Central Teacher Eligibility Test (CTET) conducted by the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) shall be considered recognised for the purpose of appointment as teacher in class I - VIII in the Union territory of Puducherry,” said an order of Directorate of School Education (DSE).
Qualifying marks
The DSE prescribed the qualifying marks in CTET for General Category candidates as 60 per cent while Most Backward Class, Extreme Backward Class, Other Backward Class, Backward Class Muslim should obtain 55 per cent. Scheduled Caste, Backward Tribe and Differently-abled persons should have 50 per cent marks.
This order takes prospective effect only and the past cases decided otherwise shall not be reopened.
The order also said that those who have already appeared for Teacher Eligibility Test conducted by Tamil Nadu, Kerala and Andhra Pradesh may be considered eligible till the validity period of the certificates, i.e. for seven years, as per NCTE norms, provided they have scored the stipulated percentage of marks.
If they have not obtained the minimum qualifying marks, they should appear for CTET only in future for the purpose of employment in this Union Territory.
Those who have already appeared for CTET and obtained the minimum qualifying marks need not appear again for Central Teacher Eligibility Test and those who have failed to secure the above said marks may appear for Central Teacher Eligibility Test to qualify themselves.
RTE Act
Originally, as per the provisions of the Right of Children to Free and Compulsory Education Act, 2009 (RTE Act, 2009), the Central Government had authorised the National Council for Teacher Education (NCTE) as the academic authority to lay down the minimum qualifications for a person to be eligible for appointment as a teacher.
Test mandatory
Making Teacher Eligibility Test mandatory, the NCTE said the candidate should pass the Teacher Eligibility Test (TET) which will be conducted by the appropriate Government. It also stipulated that the State/Union Territory would consider the Teacher Eligibility Test conducted by the Central Government in case it decides not to conduct its own Teacher Eligibility Test.
As the Union territory of Puducherry does not have a Board of Education of its own, Puducherry and Karaikal regions are following the curriculum of Tamil Nadu, while Mahe and Yanam regions are following the curriculum of Kerala and Andhra Pradesh respectively.
So, the Director of School Education has been following TETs conducted by Tamil Nadu, Kerala and Andhra Pradesh for the appointment of teachers
Considering the practical difficulties involved in considering all the Teacher Eligibility Test candidate in view of the different qualifying marks prescribed, the DSE Puducherry said, “There is no uniformity in qualifying marks for various reserved categories. Difference in qualifying marks for reserved categories in each region of this Union Territory has led to alleged discrimination.”
The DSE submitted a proposal to recognise and consider only the Central Teacher Eligibility Test conducted by the Central Board of Secondary Education for the purpose of appointment in the Union territory of Puducherry.
Qualifying marks
The Central Board of Secondary Education has left the issue of fixing qualifying marks to the recruiting authorities concerned.
Therefore, there may be no legal impediment in fixing our own qualifying marks. Government orders have already been issued to introduce Central Board of Secondary Education syllabus in a phased manner from this year and accordingly Central Board of Secondary Education syllabus has been introduced in I standard in all Government schools in all the regions.
