STATE COUNCIL OF EDUCATIONAL RESEARCH & TRAINING · UTTAR PRADESH
SCERT Uttar Pradesh (est. 1981, Lucknow) develops curriculum & textbooks and oversees D.El.Ed (BTC)teacher training. Here's what it does, its official scert-up.in / updeled.gov.in portals, and how merit-based UP D.El.Ed admission works.
This page is published by BITE (Banaras Institute of Teacher's Education), Varanasi — an NCTE + SCERT-UP-affiliated D.El.Ed (BTC) college, so we know the D.El.Ed pathway first-hand. But we are not SCERT UP. For official notifications, curriculum and textbooks use scert-up.in; for D.El.Ed admission, forms and the merit list use updeled.gov.in. We never publish official results or admission decisions — we explain the process and point you to the right portal.
SCERT UP is the state's apex body for school-education quality and elementary-teacher training, working under the Department of Basic Education. Its six core functions:
Develops the syllabus, textbooks and teaching–learning material for primary & upper-primary classes (I–VIII) in Uttar Pradesh, aligned to NCF / NEP standards.
Oversees the 2-year D.El.Ed (Diploma in Elementary Education, formerly BTC) — delivered through 70 government DIETs and NCTE-recognised private colleges across the state.
Runs capacity-building and refresher training for serving elementary teachers, teacher-educators and educational administrators statewide.
Coordinates the Teacher Eligibility Test (UPTET) framework in the state — the qualifying test for aspiring government primary & upper-primary teachers.
Grants affiliation to NCTE-recognised private institutes to run BTC / D.El.Ed / NTT courses. BITE Varanasi is one such NCTE + SCERT-UP-affiliated D.El.Ed college.
Conducts educational research, surveys, evaluation studies and innovative-pedagogy programmes to improve school education outcomes in UP.
UP D.El.Ed admission is run online on updeled.gov.in by the Pariksha Niyamak Pradhikari. There is no entrance exam — allotment is on a qualifying-marks merit list across government DIETs and thousands of SCERT-UP-affiliated private colleges (well over two lakh seats statewide). Five steps:
UP D.El.Ed (BTC) admission is run online by the Pariksha Niyamak Pradhikari (PNP) on updeled.gov.in — the single official portal. Create your login with a valid mobile number and email.
Enter your 10+2 and graduation marks, category and UP-domicile details, then pay the application fee (around ₹700 for General/OBC, less for SC/ST/PwD — confirm the current fee on the portal).
There is NO entrance examination. A merit list is prepared purely from your qualifying-exam marks. Higher marks mean a better rank and a wider choice of colleges.
Fill your preferred D.El.Ed colleges — government DIETs and private SCERT-UP-affiliated colleges. Seats are allotted round-by-round on merit + your preference order.
Report to your allotted college within the window, verify your original documents and pay the fees to lock your 2-year D.El.Ed (BTC) seat.
Exact dates, fees and eligibility are notified each cycle on updeled.gov.in — always confirm there before applying. This page explains the process; it is not the admission portal.
