CTET 2026: The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) has announced that the 21st edition of the Central Teacher Eligibility Test (CTET) will be conducted on February 8, 2026 (Sunday). The exam will be conducted in 132 cities across India and will be offered in 20 languages.
A detailed information bulletin – containing essential details like syllabus, eligibility criteria, exam fee, exam cities and important dates – will be available soon on the official CTET website, ctet.nic.in.
CBSE has advised all interested candidates to download the bulletin from the official website only and apply online through the same portal once the application process starts.
CTET, conducted by CBSE on behalf of the Ministry of Education, serves as a qualifying examination for candidates aspiring to become teachers for classes I to VIII in schools governed by the provisions of the Right of Children to Free and Compulsory Education (RTE) Act, 2009.
The National Council for Teacher Education (NCTE) through its notification has prescribed Teacher Eligibility Test (TET) as a mandatory qualification for appointment as a teacher. The rationale behind introducing TET is to set national standards and benchmarks for teacher quality, to encourage teacher education institutions to raise their academic standards and to emphasize the commitment of the government to ensure quality in school education.
Candidates are encouraged to prepare using only authentic textbooks and the syllabus prescribed by NCTE. CBSE has reiterated that the CTET examination process is open, fair and transparent, and qualifying the examination depends entirely on aptitude, ability and sincere preparation.
Note: Candidates should visit the official CTET website regularly: ctet.nic.in For latest updates regarding the exam.
