ASAL Teachers inform TSC that they won’t be reporting to school unless they are transferred.
It is alarming how things are for instructors in arid and semi-arid regions. They are dealing with a number of difficulties, such as problems with transfers, transportation, and security. To guarantee the safety of both teachers and pupils, the Teachers Service Commission (TSC) must act quickly to resolve these issues.
In these areas, security and safety should come first. Given the absence of protection and the exorbitant cost of travelling, many teachers have expressed concerns about their safety. As a result, a sizable number of them are now looking for transfers to safer regions.
These concerns have been raised in discussions with governmental representatives and parliamentary committees. How traumatized instructors can adequately serve their children in such conditions has been questioned by Luanda MP Dick Maungu. Haro Abdul, a Member of Parliament for Mandera South, underlined that instructors’ ability to educate students is ultimately harmed by the time spent obtaining transfers.
Rebecca Tonkei, a Narok MP, lambasted the TSC for refusing to allow teacher transfers despite a request from Parliament. But according to TSC CEO Dr. Nancy Macharia, teacher transfers depend on things including the availability of vacancies, the necessity for fill-ins, staffing standards, and medical justifications. She pointed out that difficulties arise because there aren’t enough qualified candidates to fill open positions and because many instructors initially requested transfers to their home counties.
Kithure Kindiki, the interior cabinet secretary, noted that many teachers had to stay in temporary housing or police stations for their protection. In order to prioritize their safety, he ensured that non-local instructors were being relocated to safer places.

Julius Melly, a member of parliament for Tinderet, underlined the necessity for the government to ensure the safety of teachers, particularly when schools were about to close and reopen. Kindiki suggested giving local students scholarships to enroll in teaching programs and fill these roles while transferring non-local teachers after a brief period of time. These conversations make it clear how urgent it is to deal with the difficulties teachers in these areas confront.
