The Jharkhand Academic Council (JAC) activated the mock test link for the Jharkhand Teacher Eligibility Test (JTET) 2026, with the examination scheduled for November 1, 2026. The admit cards for the state-level eligibility examination were released on October 15, 2026, allowing candidates to access their hall tickets online.

The JTET is a mandatory qualification for individuals seeking primary and upper-primary level teaching positions in government-aided schools across Jharkhand. The ongoing JSSC Para Teacher (JTAACCE-2026) recruitment, which covers 7,299 posts, requires JTET qualification, with Paper I for Class 1-5 positions and Paper II for Class 6-8 positions.

JTET 2026 Admit Card Download and Verification

Candidates can download their JTET 2026 admit cards from jactetonline.com using their registration details and login credentials. It is mandatory for all applicants to print a clear copy of their hall ticket. The official JAC website, jac.jharkhand.gov.in, also provides relevant information.

Upon downloading, candidates should carefully check their name, photograph, signature, paper, examination centre, shift, and other printed instructions. Any discrepancies found in the hall ticket must be reported immediately to the examination authority for rectification. Candidates are also advised to verify their individual shift and reporting time on the admit card and check their examination centre in advance.

Examination Schedule and Format

The JTET 2026 examination will be conducted in an offline, objective-type format, with a duration of two hours and 30 minutes for each paper. Paper 2, intended for Classes 6 to 8, is scheduled for the morning session, while Paper 1, for Classes 1 to 5, will be held in the afternoon session.

Both papers cover Child Development & Pedagogy, Language I, and Language II. Paper I in addition includes Mathematics and Environmental Studies, whereas Paper II includes either Mathematics & Science or Social Studies. Practice resources, including 30 full-length mock tests and nine subject tests covering Child Development and Pedagogy (CDP), languages, Environmental Studies (EVS), Mathematics, and Social Sciences, are available for candidates.

Reporting Instructions and Required Documents

Applicants must arrive at their assigned examination venues exactly two hours prior to their scheduled shift. The gate closure will occur strictly 30 minutes before the test begins, and no candidate will be permitted entry after this time. Candidates must carry a printed admit card and a valid photo identity document to the examination centre.

Acceptable valid photo IDs include an Aadhaar Card, PAN Card, or Voter ID. These measures are in place to ensure a smooth and secure examination process for all candidates appearing for the JTET 2026.
