The Tamil Nadu Teachers Recruitment Board has begun the TNTET 2025 examination process with Paper One scheduled for today, November fifteen. Thousands of candidates across the state are appearing for the first round of the eligibility test. The board has instructed all candidates to follow reporting guidelines strictly to avoid delays at the exam centres. Paper One is meant for teaching eligibility for classes one to five, while Paper Two will assess eligibility for classes six to eight on November sixteen. With the exam process taking place over two consecutive days, the board has reiterated the importance of timely reporting and mandatory document verification.
TNTET 2025 Paper One Reporting Time and Exam Schedule
The board has notified that Paper One will run for a total duration of three hours. Candidates are required to reach their designated exam venue at least one hour before the commencement of the test to complete biometric and identity checks. Before reviewing the schedule, candidates must understand that reporting delays may result in disqualification from entry, as supervisors have been instructed to close gates well before the exam begins. The timing is uniform across centres, ensuring smooth coordination and reduced crowding at document checkpoints.
