What is cps tet?

cps tet (Cumulative Proficiency Score Teacher Eligibility Test) is an exam conducted in India for teachers which is primarily aimed at determining the knowledge and skills of a teacher. It is jointly managed by the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) and the National Council of Educational Research and Training (NCERT). The concept behind the TET exams was proposed in 2005 by the Right to Education Act.

The CPS TET Exam consists of two papers – A & B. Paper A focuses on the pedagogical aspects and aims to test a candidate's ability to apply his/her knowledge in teaching students. It consists of questions related to teaching-learning process, understanding children with special needs, assessment strategies, among others. Paper B focuses on language proficiency, higher level cognitive skills such as critical thinking and analytical ability, problem solving skills along with conceptual clarity on different subjects such as Mathematics, Physical Sciences and Social Sciences.

Candidates who score above 50% marks in both Paper A and Paper B are declared as qualified for the CPS TET Exam. This score is considered valid for seven years from the date of declaration of results for getting teacher appointments in recognized schools or private educational institutions throughout India.
