BETET / TET : HC stops appointment of untrained teachers

PATNA: The Patna high court on Wednesday ordered that there would be no appointment of untrained teachers even if they have passed the teachers eligibility test (TET) for the posts of secondary and higher secondary teachers in government schools. The court also directed the state government to return the TET fee collected from the untrained teachers appeared at the test. 

A single bench presided by Justice Samarendra Pratap Singh passed this order while hearing a writ petition of trained teachers, Prabhat Kumar and others, who challenged the decision of the state government to appoint the untrained teachers, who have passed the test, as secondary and higher secondary teachers. 

The petitioner challenged this on the ground that the National Council of Teachers Education (NCTE) had not yet given clearance to the state government for the appointment of any teacher without having the BEd degree.
