APTET - BACKGROUND AND RATIONALE
1. The implementation of the Right of Children to free and compulsory education (RTE)
Act 2009 requires the recruitment of a large number of teachers across the country in a time
bound manner. In spite of the enormity of the task, it is desirable to ensure that quality
requirement for recruitment of teachers is not diluted at any cost. It is therefore necessary to
ensure that persons recruited as teachers possess the essential aptitude and ability to meet
the challenges of teaching at the Elementary level Classes (I to VIII).
2. In accordance with the provisions of sub-section (1) of section 23 of the RTE Act, 2009
the National Council for Teacher Education (NCTE) had vide Notification dated 23rd August,
2010 laid down the minimum qualifications for a person to be eligible for appointment as a
teacher in classes I to VIII. It had been inter alia provided that one of the essential
qualifications for a person to be eligible for appointment as a teacher in any of the schools
referred to in clause (n) of section 2 of the RTE Act is that she/he should pass the Teacher
Eligibility Test (TET) which will be conducted by the appropriate Government in accordance
with the Guidelines framed by the NCTE. Accordingly, Government of Andhra Pradesh has
issued guidelines for conducting Teacher Eligibility Test in A.P. vide G.O.Ms. No. 51, School
Education (SE.GENL-II) Dept., Dated 16 – 04 – 2011. Subsequently, two more G.Os. G.O.Ms.
No. 70, School Education (SE.GENL-II) Dept., Dated 06 – 06 – 2011 and G.O.Ms. No. 102,
School Education (SE.GENL-II) Dept., Dated 28 – 07 – 2011 are issued.
3. The rationale for including the TET as a minimum qualification for a person to be
eligible for appointment as a teacher is as under.
i. It would bring national standards and benchmark of teacher quality in the
recruitment process;
ii. It would induce teacher education institutions and students from these institutions
to further improve their performance standards;
iii. It would send a positive signal to all stakeholders that the Government lays special
emphasis on teacher quality.
