Bhaiyon-behno, do badi baatein hui hain aur dono ek saath samajhni zaroori hain:

1. 6 September wala exam TAL gaya hai. CBSE ne CTET ke 22ve sanskaran ka wo exam sthagit kar diya hai. Nayi tareekh ab 12 aur 13 December 2026 hai (CBSE notice 14.09.2026).

2. Aur isi ke saath form DOBARA khul gaya hai - 25 August se 1 September 2026 tak.

Yaani jinka form May-June wali window me chhoot gaya tha, unke paas ab dobara mauka hai - par sirf chhah din.

Jinhone pehle hi form bhar diya hai, unhe dobara kuch nahi karna. Unka aavedan waise hi maanya hai; pariksha 12-13 December ko.

Baaki sab waisa hi hai - Paper 1 (Class 1-5) aur Paper 2 (Class 6-8), dono bhare ja sakte hain. 150 prashn, 150 marks, 2.5 ghante, koi negative marking nahi, paas ke liye 60%. Aur wo badlav jo sabse zyada kaam ka hai - CTET ka certificate ab jeevan bhar ke liye maanya hai, pehle 7 saal chalta tha.

Pehle ki chetavni ab purani: 14 September se pehle koi tareekh official nahi thi. Ab CBSE ne khud 12 aur 13 December 2026 batayi hai - aage ki har soochna ctet.nic.in se hi maaniye.
