The West Bengal government will take a call on conducting primary Teachers' Eligibility Test (TET) after finding the exact number of vacancies in state-run and state-aided primary schools, state Education minister Partha Chatterjee said Saturday.
Besides, the student-teacher ratio in every primary school would be examined, he said.
"After calculating these figures, we will arrive at the actual vacancy figure (in primary schools) and conduct the TET examination accordingly," Chatterjee told reporters.
To appear for the TET examination, candidates must complete a two-year teacher training programme or secure at least 50 per cent in the Higher Secondary Examination.
