Current Scenario of B.ed in India
In India, it is compulsory to have a B.Ed qualification in order to teach in both high schools and higher primary schools.
For studying the B.Ed. course, the course aspirants should at least pass their graduation with a B.A. (Bachelor of Arts), B.Com (Bachelor of Commerce), or B.Sc. (Bachelor of Science) degree. In spite of the fact that students from the arts stream are educated to impart training on subjects such as Social Science, History, Geography and languages, the science stream students pursue the B.Ed course so that they can impart training on subjects like Physics, Mathematics, Biology, and Chemistry.
Once the B.Ed course is completed, higher study aspirants have the option of going for the M.Ed or Master of Education degree which is offered by a large number of universities in India.
The NCTE or National Council for Teacher Education is the authoritative organization which monitors study programs on education in the country.
