NCTE May Introduce JEE for B.Ed Admission
The National Council for Teacher Education (NCTE) may introduce JEE for B.Ed admission to keep a check on the quality of teachers. JEE for B.Ed admission will help to filter out the diligent students with an aptitude to become teachers.
NCTE is planning to come up with a Joint Entrance Examination (JEE) to maintain the quality of teachers. According to the sources, every year around 19 lakh students enroll in teacher training institutes. However, the country needs only 3 lakh trained teachers. Therefore, it is very important to come up with an entrance exam for the quality check so as to select the best candidates.
Dr. Satbir Bedi, Chairperson NCTE informed that revising the entry-level check is important and the Council will focus on equipping teachers with the right skill set so that they are well equipped to teach both in India and abroad.
The National Council for Teacher Education may introduce an all India entrance exam to filter out the best students with a passion for teaching. Just like AICTE, NCTE may also consider shutting down teacher training institutes if the quality is not improved in the next few years.
Also, a one year B.Ed counseling course is on the way which will train the graduates to deal with psychological issues related to school students. It is very important to have at least one counselor in every school. The curriculum of the course will be application-based.
