The Supreme Court refused to review its 2025 judgment directing in-service teachers recruited before the RTE Act, 2009, to obtain TET qualifications. The requirement applies to teachers with over five years of service left, who must clear TET within two years from September 1, 2025.
Tamil Nadu will move the Supreme Court against its order requiring in-service teachers to clear TET within two years or face compulsory retirement. The state says applying the rule retrospectively is “unfair and unsustainable.”
