TNTET : Teacher Eligibility Test: Organizations demand TN govt to file review petition in HC

TNTET : Teacher Eligibility Test: Organizations demand TN govt to file review petition in HC




CHENNAI: Three organisations in Tamil Nadu will hold protests in Chennai, Madurai, Salem and Coimbatore on October 8 to demand the state government file a review petition in the high court after the Madurai bench of the Madras high court quashed a government order which relaxed the minimum qualifying marks for the reserved category of teachers appearing in the Tamil Nadu Teacher Eligibility Test.

The high court's order had led to confusion and denied the reserved category candidates their right guaranteed under the Constitution, said a statement from the Tamil Nadu Untouchability Eradication Front, the Tamil Nadu Tribals' Association and the State Platform for Common School System.

"The government has failed to respond to our representation requesting it to file review petition," the statement said.

जागरण संवाददाता, इलाहाबाद : केन्द्रीय माध्यमिक शिक्षा बोर्ड (सीबीएसई) अपने ही प्रश्नों में फंसता नजर आ रहा है। बोर्ड ने 21 सितम्बर को आयोजित किए केन्द्रीय अध्यापक पात्रता परीक्षा (सीटीईटी) की उत्तर कुंजी में खुद ही अपने आप को गलत ठहराते हुए एक ही प्रश्न के अलग-अलग सेट में अलग-अलग उत्तर दिखाया है। बोर्ड ने कुल 30 प्रश्नों में से 15 प्रश्नों के दो-दो उत्तर जारी कर दिए हैं।1रविवार 21 सितम्बर को देशभर के कई केन्द्रों में आयोजित हुई इस परीक्षा में 6.98 लाख परीक्षार्थी पंजीकृत थे। बोर्ड ने प्रश्नों के सही उत्तर गुरुवार को जारी किये। उत्तर कुंजी जारी होते ही छात्रों ने प्रश्नों के उत्तर से मिलान किया तो सीबीएसई की बड़ी गलतियों का खुलासा हो गया। बोर्ड ने एक ही प्रश्न को अलग-अलग सेट में अलग प्रश्न संख्या के रूप में दिया था और जब उत्तर कुंजी जारी हुई तो उन्हीं प्रश्नों के दो- दो उत्तर जारी कर दिए। इसके अलावा कई प्रश्नों के उत्तर भी गलत जारी कर दिया। बोर्ड ने प्रश्नपत्र के क्यू सेट में भाषा के द्वितीय प्रश्नपत्र के प्रश्न संख्या 123 में कस्य ध्वनि: श्रूयते पूछते हुए इसका उत्तर दूसरे विकल्प वंश्या को बताया है जबकि इसी प्रश्न को टी सेट में प्रश्न संख्या 138 में पूछते हुए इसका उत्तर भेर्या: बताया है। इसी तरह से क्यू सेट के प्रश्न संख्या 124, 125, 126, 127, 132, 133, 135, 140, 142, 143, 144, 145, 147, 148 व 149 पर भी छात्रों ने आपत्ति जाहिर की। छात्रों ने बोर्ड के रवैये पर भी आक्रोश जाहिर किया है। सीटीईटी के एक ही प्रश्नपत्र के आधे प्रश्नों पर उठ रही आपत्ति बोर्ड के कई और गलतियों का संकेत दे रही हैं। हालांकि समय कम होने के कारण छात्र भी असमंजस में पड़े हुए हैं कि वो कैसे सभी प्रश्नों के सही उत्तर जांच कर सामने ला सकें। 25 सितम्बर को अपरान्ह जारी हुए प्रश्नपत्रों की उत्तरकुंजी के आधार पर बोर्ड ने 26 सितम्बर तक ही आपत्ति दर्ज कराने का समय दिया है।

TNTET Weightage System for Recruitment of Teachers Valid

TNTETWeightage System for Recruitment of Teachers Valid



TNTET  / टीईटी / TET - Teacher Eligibility Test Updates / Teacher Recruitment  /SARKARI NAUKRI NEWS  / SARKARI NAUKRI News


CHENNAI: Bringing the curtains down on the raging controversy over weightage in teachers’ recruitment, Madras High Court on Monday upheld the new system, observing that the object and rationale behind it was to have more qualified ones as teachers.

The Court upheld the orders of a single judge and a consequent GO dated May 30 this year, which applied weightage system for recruitment of secondary grade teachers in the State.

“There is no material available before us to hold that the Government did not apply its mind. The object and rationale behind the selection of teachers is to have more qualified ones to teach the students. This can only be augmented by a wider participation. Therefore, the policy decision taken by the government keeping in mind the public interest, cannot be assailed,” observed the Second Bench of Justices SK Agnihotri and MM Sundaresh.

The Bench was dismissing a batch of writ appeals challenging the orders on a single Judge dated April 29 and writ petitions questioning the May 30 GO, which was passed based on that.

The Bench said the methodology adopted by the government in quantifying the percentage of marks with respect to Teacher Eligibility Test could not be termed as arbitrary, as contended by the appellants and petitioners. It is for them to demonstrate that the methodology adopted is not correct.

“The single Judge had correctly found that the earlier methodology adopted was not correct. The government has correctly removed the anomalies and adopted a more rational method, compared to those adopted in States like Andhra Pradesh and West Bengal, where less percentage of marks had been given to the marks obtained in the TET,” the Bench pointed out.

There was no non-application of mind and there was nothing wrong in the suggestion made by the single Judge. He had merely stated that it was for the government to adopt either the suggestions made by him or to follow any other method. The government had found it fit to adopt the suggestion made by him, as being reasonable and fair. “We do not find any illegality in passing the GO,” the Bench said.

TNTET :MHC upholds govt order on TET with regard to weightage marks

TNTET  :MHC upholds govt order on TET with regard to weightage marks



The Madras High Court brought to an end a raging debate over government norms for selection of school teachers by upholding the policy giving 60 per cent weightage for Teacher Eligibility Test marks and 40 per cent weightage for marks obtained in Plus Two, degree and B.Ed courses.

A division bench, comprising Justices Satish K Agnihotri and M M Sundresh, concurred with submissions of Tamil Nadu Advocate General A L Somayaji and dismissed a batch of petitions and appeals in this regard.

"The 40 per cent of marks has been divided between the marks obtained in Plus 2 examination, degree and B.Ed examination. Therefore, the authorities have taken into consideration three different examinations. Such a yardstick adopted can only be fair and equitable," the bench said.

Two changes made after teacher selection tests were completed led to the ongoing agitations by candidates who had cleared TET or enjoy seniority in employment exchanges.

First, government said TET scores alone would not suffice for teacher posts and later it granted five-mark relaxation for reserved communities. As a result, 60 per cent of TET marks and 40 per cent of qualification exam marks were taken into account.

While 60 marks was cut off for other communities, the minimum mark was brought down to 55 for reserved communities.

Assailing the changes, the petitioners and appellants submitted that the state government did not have the power or authority to reduce the qualifying pass mark and said rights accrued to them could not be taken away by a subsequent action of the government.

The AG, however, argued that the government had statutory backing to modify the selection procedure, including fixing of qualification and marks.

Noting that the new policy would give more candidates an opportunity to participate, he said its rational yardstick could not be questioned by candidates.

The judges agreed with him and said the relaxation in the qualifying marks did not take away the rights of petitioner candidates from being considered on merit. It did not dilute, vary or modify the status of petitioner-candidates, they said.

"We also find that the methodology adopted by the authorities is more rational compared to those adopted in some other states such as Andhra Pradesh and West Bengal where less percentage of marks had been given to the marks obtained in the Teacher Eligibility Test," the bench said.

TNTET :Scrap Teachers’ Eligibility Test weightage system: PMK, DMDK

TNTET :Scrap Teachers’ Eligibility Test weightage system: PMK, DMDK


*****************************
In Tamilnadu, Selection through TET marks Merit is Demanded By Protestors.
And they don't want Selection Through Weightage of TET marks.
Recently new system is adopted by Tamilnadu Govt, i.e Base of Selection = Acad Marks Weightage + TET Marks Weighatage.
***********************************

See News :->



The teacher aspirants have been protesting against the weightage system introduced by the TN Teachers Recruitment Board. Apart from Teachers’ Eligibility Test (TET) scores, the evaluation method was changed to award 40 per cent weightage to plus-2, graduation and B.Ed marks. According to the protesters, the new system would give young applicants, who have not scored high marks in the TET, an edge over their older counterparts with higher TET marks.

Mr Vijayakanth urged the government to hold talks with protesting teachers to resolve the issue amicably. “The government must appoint teachers based on the marks scored in TET alone. The wieghtage system should be scrapped,” he said, demanding the state government to withhold TET exam until all graduate teachers were given appointments.

Dr S. Ramadoss noted that weightage system was not followed for recruitment of PG teachers and hence, it was unnecessary to follow this in the appointment of graduate teachers alone.

TNTET : HC stays appointment of teachers

The Madras High Court bench here today stayed the appointment of Graduate Assistant Teachers and Secondary Grade Teachers, but said "counselling for the 2013-14 can be held.

Admitting a batch of petitions seeking to quash a Government Order of May 30 this eyar giving weightage of marks taking into account marks obtained by the candidates in the higher secondary course, degree course, B.Ed and Teacher Eligibility Test, Justice K K Sasidharan stayed the appointment and sought the reply of the officials including the Chairman of Teachers Recruitment Board within three weeks.

One of the 18 petitioners V Tamilarasan, submitted that though he secured as high as 92 marks out 150 in the TET, he could not get a posting because the G.O. Prescribed weightage of marks taking into account marks obtained in plus two, degree, BEd and TET, DTeD and D.E.Ed.

The TRB couldnot treat the candidates who passed the examination now on par with those who completed examination five or ten years ago. The Government order did not give any weightage for seniority, experience.
