Can I appear for CTET/STET without a B.Ed. or a B.El.Ed. Degree?
Author: Partha K. Post Date: 12 Apr 2024 A Bachelor of Education (B.Ed) degree is not compulsory for the Central Teacher Eligibility Test (CTET) exam.
However, to be eligible to appear for the CTET exam, the candidates must have a minimum educational qualification of Senior Secondary (or its equivalent) degree with at least 50% marks from a recognized Board, with the following additional qualification: (a) having passed or appeared in the final year of the two-year Diploma in Elementary Education, or, (b) two-year Bachelor of Elementary Education (B.El.Ed), or, (c) two-year Diploma in Education (Special Education).
So, from the above, it is clear that a B.Ed degree is not mandatory for CTET, but CTET candidates must possess the necessary qualifications as mentioned above.
The applicants must have the above degrees/diplomas before appearing in the CTET.
