That’s what’s sparking anger across Andhra Pradesh. The APTF is staging protests in multiple districts, demanding the government exempt in-service teachers from the TET; yes, the same test meant for new entrants. Their argument? It’s absurd to treat veteran educators like fresh candidates. Tamil Nadu’s already moved to cancel it; why not AP? Teachers say the test’s syllabus doesn’t match what they actually teach, the passing bar should be lowered to 40%, and exams should go back to offline mode. There’s also a call to push for a change in the RTE Act itself. The message to Education Minister Nara Lokesh? Sit down with us; or prepare for unified action. This isn’t just about an exam. It’s about respect, recognition, and rethinking how we value experience in education. And if you’re an aspiring teacher, this fight could shape how future hiring works too. Keep an eye on this; it’s not over yet.
