Everything the TET asks.
Straight from the Boards.

No. This is an independent preparation site. It is not the West Bengal Board of Primary Education and does not speak for them. Every date and notice here links to the Board’s own document, and wbbpe.wb.gov.in is the authority.

No. In the Board’s own words, “Qualifying CTET would not confer a right on any person for Recruitment/Employment as it is only of the eligibility criteria for appointment.” It makes you eligible to apply; the recruiting authority still runs its own selection. (CBSE, CTET Frequently Asked Questions, v5 of 5 August 2025.)

For life. NCTE changed it in June 2021 from the earlier seven years: “The Validity period of TET qualifying certificate for appointment, unless otherwise notified by the appropriate Government, would remain valid for life.” Note the caveat — a state government can notify otherwise, so check your own Board’s notice as well. (CBSE CTET FAQ v5, quoting NCTE; public notice of 21 June 2021 on ctet.nic.in.)

60 per cent or more. NCTE’s notification of 11 February 2011 says a person scoring 60% or more in the TET is considered TET-pass — 90 out of 150. On concessions the official wording is narrower than most sites suggest: school managements “may consider giving concessions to person belonging to SC/ST OBC differently able persons” under their own reservation policy. So the commonly quoted 55 per cent is a concession a recruiter may apply, not a second pass mark set by the Board.

As many as you like. “Till now there is no limit on number of attempts for appearing in CTET”, and you may sit it again after already qualifying — the Board’s answer to that is “Yes There is no restriction”. People do re-sit to improve a score. (CBSE CTET FAQ v5.)

Only if you want to teach across both stages. Paper I covers classes I–V and Paper II classes VI–VIII; you need both only if you intend to teach classes I–VIII. They do not have to be taken together — the Board confirms you may appear in Paper I and Paper II in different cycles. Each paper runs 2 hours 30 minutes. (CBSE CTET FAQ v5.)

From DigiLocker. The Board issues the eligibility certificate and marksheet there rather than on paper, so a lost copy is re-downloaded rather than reissued. (CBSE CTET FAQ v5.)

Two different authorities, which is a common source of confusion. The Primary TET, for classes I–V, is conducted by the West Bengal Board of Primary Education. The Upper Primary test, for classes VI–VIII, is set by the West Bengal Central School Service Commission — it is not a WBBPE examination. CTET, covering both stages nationally, is conducted by the Central Board of Secondary Education.

On 24 December 2023. It was first notified for 10 December and then postponed by the Board, so the earlier date still circulates and is wrong. Around 2.73 lakh of the 3.09 lakh registered candidates sat it. We show this date with a caution until a reviewer has checked it against the Board’s own notice.

Not automatically. CTET is the central eligibility test and is used for central-government schools; whether a state accepts a CTET certificate for its own recruitment is that state’s decision, and for West Bengal’s state-aided primary posts the Board’s own TET is what its notices require. Check the recruitment notice you are applying under — CBSE itself says eligibility “shall be finally verified, by the concerned recruiting agency / appointing authority.”

The Board publishes topics at a certain level of detail. Where we split one of those into smaller pieces to make it easier to study, we label it as ours rather than presenting it as official wording.

Because nothing has been published there yet. There are 60 lessons, 3,402 practice questions and 90 papers to sit published so far, and more are written and checked each week. An empty page is never content hidden behind a payment: if something is there and you cannot open it, the page says so and says why.

Premium is ₹299 for one month, ₹599 for three months or ₹899 for six months. They do not all unlock the same things, so the comparison on the plans page is the one to read before choosing. Each is a single payment for that many days — nothing renews, and no card is stored by this site.

Yes. 10 lessons are written in Bengali rather than translated into it, and questions carry Bengali wherever a full translation has been written — never half of one, because a part-translated question renders half in each language. You choose the language when you start a paper. The site's own buttons and menus are in English for now.
