The aspirants who appear in CTET will be issued a Marks Statement. Those who secure 60% and above marks will be issued an Eligibility Certificate.
The School Authorities (Government, Local bodies, Government aided and unaided) might consider giving concessions to aspirants who belong to SC/ST, OBC, differently-abled persons, etc., in accordance with their extant reservation policy and on providing original certificate by the candidates. Qualifying the CTET doesn't mean that would confer a right on any person for recruitment/employment as it is only one of the eligibility criteria for appointment.
