history of education as the basic functions of educational system of a country. The vital role in

fulfilling the functions of education is the role that is played by a teacher. The teacher can play

his respected role in this regard but only when he has the requisite competency and a

missionary zeal for achieving the national objectives of education. With the dawn of

civilization, the society has entrusted the responsibility of man-making process and

realizing the vital importance of teacher and more than that, of his abilities to transact

curricular experiences. Educational institutions at all level of education pre elementary,

elementary, secondary and teacher education have been established all over Uttar Pradesh.

The network of educational Institutions at pre-primary, primary, secondary, higher secondary

and teacher education institutions are, indeed, enormous. U.P. is one of the largest state of

India. It has 12 state universities with which before the commencement of joint B.Ed.

Entrance Test 2012 around 1000 aided and non-aided colleges were affiliated. All teacher

education institutions are affiliated with some university of the state. But no institution can get

affiliation unless it gets recognition from NCTE. The basic policy in respect of teacher

education is governed by state govt. as well as by NCTE.

Higher education/teacher education on concurrent list of our constitution, therefore, the state

adopts all rules and regulations issued by NCTE from time to time, for purposes of

enhancement quality of pre service teacher education students and development of the

teaching competency of teachers in-service in secondary schools of Uttar Pradesh. Each

university of the state is an autonomous body. It has its own academic & profession body like

Board of Studies for developing curriculum in teacher education, research degree committee

for the approval of research proposals for Ph.D. Degree Course. After subjecting the research

proposal a viva-voce examination is held and registration letter is issued to a candidate.

Admission in teacher education is governed by B.Ed. Entrance Test conducted by a State

University. The university allots students college wise, keeping in view, the criteria prescribed

by the state.

Administrative governance of teacher education at secondary stage is governed by U.P.

University Act, 1973. The act prescribes the post of Principal, HOD, Reader & Lecturer as
