Teachers’ employer, the Teachers Service Commission (TSC), insists that in its new plan to promote teachers from July, it will only consider teachers who scored a C+(plus) on the KCSE.
This arose after the commission stopped automatically elevating teachers with better academic credentials.
Automatic teacher promotion was terminated because it was unsustainable, according to TSC CEO Dr. Nancy Macharia, who stated earlier in parliament.
“This program was fiscally unsustainable due to the enormous number of instructors acquiring higher qualifications,” Macharia said in a statement.
Teachers in the six job groups will get salary increases with arrears after the July 2022 budget, according to the latest report from the Teachers Service Commission
Teachers in grades C4, C5, D1, D2, D3, and D4 will have their earnings boosted, according to the study, because they have not yet reached the maximum compensation points allowed by the salary banding.
The commission has also confirmed that effective July 1, 2020, the salary points for these grades would be increased.
Furthermore, from the time they reached the maximum salary point until January 2022, these teachers will get compensation increases in arrears.
This is wonderful news for instructors who fit within these categories.
Hello tsc no. 504066 have stagnated in the same Job group for close to 7 years,request for promotion consideration
Promotions nowadays are tribal and nepotistic. Only God knows how and when some of us will get the promotions.
I concur with you sir but consider my tenure of service which is close to 31 years yet marking time for possible promotion to head an institution. My contemporaries are now chief principals, some having taken short cuts to get there. When new institutions come up, there’s already a line up of who will be posted there. It’s a cartel sir.
Many teachers face a similar situation like yours. The employer should surely address the issue so there’s fairness in promotion of tutors.
