Kerala Revises K-TET Guidelines After SC Ruling

The Kerala government has updated the rules for the Kerala Teachers' Eligibility Test (K-TET) after the Supreme Court made it mandatory for all school teachers.

Now, teachers need to pass specific K-TET categories to be eligible for different teaching posts.

The government has also removed exemptions for teachers with higher qualifications.

Additionally, six states, including Kerala, have not yet implemented the new rule that children must be at least six years old to start Class 1, as per the National Education Policy 2020.

The government is asking these states to follow the new age criteria for the next school year.
