Nagaland TET Result 2026: N-TET Merit List, Certificates

The Nagaland TET (N-TET) 2026 result is not out: the examination itself is on 21 November 2026. For reference, SCERT Nagaland declared the N-TET 2025 result (exam on 22 November 2025) by a notification dated 21 January 2026, and the N-TET 2024 result (exam on 23 November 2024) by a notification dated 21 January 2025.

How the N-TET result is published

The N-TET 2026 Guidelines and Syllabus say the written result "shall be prepared on merit basis and will be notified in the Newspaper", and hosted on the SCERT website, scert.nagaland.gov.in. For N-TET 2025, SCERT's result page carried three PDFs: Paper-I (Primary, Class I-V) and two Paper-II (Upper Primary, Class VI-VIII) lists, one for Mathematics and Science and one for Social Science. Each is a merit list giving serial number, roll number and name of candidate; marks are not printed in it.

Qualifying marks

Each paper has 150 one-mark multiple-choice questions, with no negative marking. A candidate who scores 60% or more is N-TET pass; for SC, ST, OBC, differently abled persons and similar categories the minimum is 55%, in line with the existing reservation policy. The pass certificate records your marks in each paper and the class level, and for Classes VI to VIII the subject area.

Answer keys before the result

SCERT has posted answer keys on its website ahead of the result in recent cycles: the N-TET 2025 Answer Keys page is dated 3 December 2025, and the N-TET 2024 page 31 December 2024. The 2024 keys were given set-wise, with Set A and Set B for each paper. Neither page describes an objection procedure.

Collecting the N-TET pass certificate

• N-TET 2025: from the SCERT office, 27 January till 4 February 2026, 10:00 AM to 3:00 PM, at the SIEMAT building. Candidates whose result was withheld had to bring their final year professional (D.El.Ed/B.Ed) pass certificate on the day of collection.
• N-TET 2024: 22 January till 31 January 2025, 10:00 AM to 3:00 PM, from Room No. 5.
• N-TET 2023: 11 to 15 December 2023, in office hours.

In each of these cycles candidates had to bring their N-TET admit card. The pass certificate is valid for lifetime for all categories. There is no limit on attempts to improve your score, but a candidate who does so must surrender the previous N-TET pass certificate.

After the result

Qualifying N-TET does not confer a right to recruitment or appointment; it is one of the eligibility criteria, and the recruiting agency or appointing authority verifies eligibility finally. The 2026 Guidelines add that, following a Supreme Court verdict, Government in-service teachers recruited before the RTE Act and with more than five years to retire must qualify N-TET by 31st Aug, 2028.
