Teachers TET Data: West Bengal Primary Teachers TET Data Submission via Google Form: Step by Step Guide
Teachers TET Data: Following the recent Supreme Court verdict on September 1, the West Bengal School Education Department has ramped up efforts to collect data regarding the Teacher Eligibility Test (TET) qualifications of all in-service primary teachers. With a strict deadline to submit this report to the Central Government by the 18th of this month, the department is utilizing a Google Form to gather precise data swiftly. The primary objective is to categorize teachers based on their TET qualification status—specifically, those with TET and those without.
Step-by-Step Guide to Filling the Google Form
Teachers will receive a specific Google Form link from their respective circles or district authorities. Accuracy is paramount while filling out this digital form. Here is a breakdown of the process:
- Basic Information: Enter your full name and the name of your school. Ensure the school name is typed in English Block Letters.
- Qualification Status: You must indicate your status under ‘Primary TET Qualified’ by selecting either ‘Yes’ or ‘No’.
- Type of TET: If you have qualified, specify whether it was the State TET or the Central TET (CTET) from the available options.
- Document Upload: General candidates need to upload a scanned copy of their TET Pass Certificate. However, there is a special provision for candidates from the 2012 batch (detailed below).
Clarification on Year of Passing
A common point of confusion for many teachers is the ‘Year of Passing’ field. Should one enter the year the exam was held or the year the results were declared? The form requires the year of result publication.
Please refer to the table below to ensure you enter the correct year in the Google Form:
| TET Exam Year | Year to Fill in Form (Result Year) |
|---|---|
| TET 2012 | 2013 |
| TET 2014 | 2016 |
| TET 2017 | 2022 |
| TET 2022 | 2023 |
Special Instructions for 2012 TET Candidates (Declaration)
Teachers who qualified in the 2012 TET often face the issue of not possessing the original certificate issued by the Board. To resolve this, these candidates must upload their TET Admit Card along with a Self-Declaration.
How to Write the Declaration:
- Personal Details: Start with “I, [Your Name]” and indicate your designation (Assistant Teacher or Head Teacher).
- School & Exam Data: Mention your school’s name and declare that you qualified for the ‘West Bengal TET’. Use 2013 as the passing year and cite your 2012 Roll Number.
- Reasoning: Clearly state that you have not yet received the original certificate from the competent authority.
- Application Reference: Include the ‘Application Number’ generated when you applied for the certificate issuance.
- Finalization: Sign the document with the date and upload it alongside your Admit Card.
Teachers are advised to complete this process urgently within the timeline prescribed by their local circle office to ensure the state complies with the central directive.
