In July 2022, the Teachers Service Commission (TSC) deregistered 73 teachers, effectively barring them from doing any type of teaching duties.
According to a statement made by Nancy Macharia, the chair of TSC, teachers are not allowed to teach students at any schools across the country under the TSC Act (2012).
By releasing the multiple case numbers along with the tutors’ names, the Commission made it known that the tutors were under investigation for a number of gross misconduct crimes.
Any individual who breaches the Act’s requirements by hiring an unregistered teacher faces the following penalties: a fine of at least Ksh100,000; a period of imprisonment of not more than two years; or both.
TSC lately dealt harshly with suspect teachers in order to ensure optimal service delivery.
The Commission deregistered 43 teachers from their system in October 2021 after taking disciplinary action against them. More than fifty teachers had their names deleted from the Register of Teachers in November 2020, and the TSC fired fifty-two teachers in May 2021 due to indiscipline-related occurrences.
The latest statistic shows that more teachers are at risk of losing their jobs than the 71 teachers who were deregistered during the course of the full year between 2017 and 2018.

It’s good to discipline teacher’s,but big cry is when a teacher is dismissed and he/she is not given a chance to be listened by any office but the head teacher takes full capacity of judge to the tsc and ensures the teacher is fired, because of their personal differences.its my prayer that Tsc to reconsider their decision mostly during matiangi error where teacher’s were being punished and fired due to minor reasons like lateness and head teachers got a chance and inflated the cases.otherwise mind the families of these teacher’s.
Tsc disciplines one teacher but messes with the whole coming generation.where these dependants faces harsh conditions even dropping from schooling.
A married teacher,at age 50s wife not employed and losses job,what do you expect.some mistakes done can be harmonized and disciplined in a tertiary manner.
Am not a teacher but a community observe.
Thank you
