The Tamil Nadu Teacher Eligibility Test (TNTET) 2025 results have been officially declared by the Teachers Recruitment Board (TRB), Tamil Nadu. The announcement came on January 31, 2026, bringing relief to thousands of aspiring teachers who appeared for the examination.
The TNTET 2025 exam was conducted on November 15, 2025, for Paper I (intended for teaching Classes 1 to 5) and November 16, 2025, for Paper II (intended for teaching Classes 6 to 8). A large number of candidates participated, with reports indicating over 92,000 for Paper I and more than 3.3 lakh for Paper II.
Along with the results, the TRB has released the final answer key after considering objections and expert scrutiny. The results are published in PDF format on the official website, listing candidates’ roll numbers, marks obtained, and qualifying status (“Qualified” or “Not Qualified”). The evaluation was based on OMR sheets and the finalized answer key.
A key update includes a revised qualifying cut-off, with a reported 5% reduction in minimum marks for reserved category candidates to promote inclusivity in teacher recruitment for primary and upper primary levels.
Qualified candidates will be eligible to download their e-certificates starting February 2, 2026, from the official TRB portal. These certificates are essential for applying to teaching positions in Tamil Nadu government schools.
