I am an inservice teacher in WestBengal belonging to general category.My marks in graduation is 46%. Ihave not done my masters. How can I get B.ed under NCTE new rules?

To get BEd admission under NCTE a candidate must have done a bachelor's degree or master's degree in any stream with a minimum score of 50% marks from a recognized university. A candidate must have done a degree course in Science/Social Sciences/Humanities/Bachelor's in Engineering or Technology with specialization in Science and Mathematics.

Admission shall be done on the basis of merit or on the basis of marks obtained in the entrance examinations which are conducted by the universities each year under the guidance of NCTE and the State Government.

As per the National Council for Teachers Education (NCTE), the minimum required percentage to pursue Bachelor of Education through regular mode is 45%.
Now, since you are presently working as a teacher and if you have been in this profession since two years, you may pursue the course through correspondence mode and to do so, there is no percentage criteria.

So, if you hold a minimum of two years of experience in Teaching, you should go for correspondence mode and in case, you do hot have the required experience, you will have to pursue B.Ed through regular mode and as mentioned earlier, you will be considered eligible by many universities, if you have scored a minimum of 45% marks in your Bachelors Degree program.

B.Ed admission eligibility criteria:-

>> Applicants with at least 50% marks either in the Bachelor's Degree(General) / or in the Master's Degree are eligible to apply. Also, applicants who had done Bachelor's in Engineering
or,
Technology with Science and/or Mathematics, with 55% marks or any other qualification equivalent are also eligible for admission.

Yes, a candidate can pursue a B. Ed degree if they have less than 50%marks in their graduation. But the candidate*must also earn a Master's degree with at least 50% marks to get*qualified for B.Ed admission.
