The Department of School Education, Government of Telangana, has officially released the hall tickets for the Telangana State Teacher Eligibility Test (TS TET) 2025. This crucial step marks the beginning of the final phase of preparation for thousands of teaching aspirants across the state. Registered candidates can now download their hall tickets from the official TS TET portal — tgtet.aptonline.in/tgtet— in advance of the upcoming examination window scheduled between June 18 and June 30, 2025.

The hall ticket is a mandatory document for entry into the examination centre, and its release on June 11, 2025, provides candidates with ample time to verify their details, locate their exam centres, and prepare accordingly. As the TS TET is an eligibility test for those aspiring to teach in Classes 1 to 8 in Telangana’s schools, it plays a significant role in shaping the careers of future educators.

The Telangana TET 2025 will be held in two shifts on each examination day — the morning session will run from 9:00 am to 11:30 am, while the afternoon session will be held from 2:00 pm to 4:30 pm. These sessions are planned to accommodate the large number of examinees while ensuring the smooth and secure conduct of the test across designated computer-based test (CBT) centres throughout the state.

To download the hall ticket, candidates must visit the official TS TET website and click on the “TS TET Admit Card 2025” link displayed on the homepage. After entering their login credentials, which include the application number and either the password or date of birth, they will be able to view and download their admit card. It is strongly advised that candidates print multiple copies of the hall ticket for safekeeping and carry one on the exam day along with a valid photo ID.

The TS TET comprises two papers. Paper I is meant for candidates aspiring to teach Classes 1 to 5, while Paper II is designed for those intending to teach Classes 6 to 8. Candidates aiming to qualify for teaching roles in Classes 1 through 8 must appear for both papers. This structure ensures that applicants are tested on content knowledge and pedagogical understanding appropriate to their targeted teaching levels.

The examination will be conducted exclusively in an online format — a Computer-Based Test (CBT) — reflecting the Department of School Education’s ongoing efforts to modernize the recruitment process, reduce administrative overhead, and minimize instances of malpractice. The digital format also helps streamline the evaluation process, potentially resulting in faster result declaration and timely recruitment procedures.

In order to qualify in the TS TET 2025, candidates must achieve the minimum qualifying marks as stipulated by the exam authorities for their respective categories. These marks differ for candidates belonging to the General, OBC, SC, ST, and differently-abled categories, ensuring that the exam remains inclusive and aligns with state reservation policies. The detailed category-wise cutoffs and reservation criteria are outlined in the official TS TET 2025 notification available on the exam portal. Candidates are advised to thoroughly read this document to understand the eligibility benchmarks they are expected to meet.

Securing a qualifying score in the TS TET does not in itself guarantee a job but is an essential requirement for applying to teaching positions in government and aided schools within Telangana. It serves as a vital certification that ensures candidates meet the academic and professional standards necessary to deliver quality education to schoolchildren. For many candidates, clearing the TS TET is a first major milestone in their journey toward becoming educators in the public school system.

The release of the hall tickets sets the stage for what is expected to be a well-organized and competitive examination. With just a few days left before the first phase of the exam begins, candidates are urged to not only focus on revising the syllabus but also on logistics — confirming the location of their examination centre, verifying the information printed on their admit card, and preparing the necessary documents and stationery required for the exam day.

As Telangana continues its efforts to enhance the quality of school education, the TS TET remains a cornerstone initiative in recruiting qualified and committed teaching professionals. Aspirants now stand at the threshold of a key opportunity, and the days ahead will be crucial in determining their success in the 2025 examination cycle.
