State primary education board to conduct TET interviews on Dec 27

The state primary education board will hold the first phase of the interview/ viva voce and aptitude test under its “direct supervision and monitoring” for candidates who aspire to teach in government-aided primary schools in Calcutta on December 27.

Partha Karmakar, the deputy secretary (academic) of the board, said in the first phase 200 candidates have been called. “We had sought applications from those who had qualified in the teachers’ eligibility test (TET) held in 2015 and in 2021 (following notifications in 2014 and 2017 respectively).” The number of vacant posts will be announced later. The interview will be video-recorded to maintain transparency.

The list of candidates and the testimonials that they have to bring have been uploaded on the board’s website.
