K-TET Category II — Upper Primary — 3-Month Fast Track
Online coaching for the Kerala Teacher Eligibility Test, Category II (Upper Primary, Classes 6 to 8). For candidates with a teaching qualification already behind them who need the syllabus covered, drilled and rehearsed before the next notification.
This is a self-paced interactive course: every unit teaches with pictures and worked examples, lets you practise with games that sort, match and order, and ends with an Exam Sprint at the real paper’s pace of one minute a question. Study in English or in Malayalam and switch at any time. There are no live classes and no video lectures — nothing is scheduled, so you can work around a job or a teaching post. The full K-TET mock-test series for your category is included.
The paper is 150 multiple-choice questions in 2 hours 30 minutes, with one mark for a correct answer and nothing deducted for a wrong one. Its parts are: Child Development and Pedagogy (ages 11–14) (30), Language I (30), Language II (other than Language I) (30), Mathematics & Science, or Social Science (60). The pass bar is 60% for general candidates, 57% with the OBC/OEC relaxation and 55% with the SC/ST/differently-abled relaxation.
Includes the full K-TET test series for this category — every full-length mock test and every topic drill, with a worked explanation for each question and a part-by-part score report that tells you which part of the paper is costing you marks.
K-TET is an eligibility test. Passing it makes you eligible for appointment as a teacher in a government or aided school in Kerala; it is not itself a job or an appointment, and no course can promise one. The certificate is valid for life.
Enrolment and classes run on LangVR, the BRETS learning platform.
