TSC ANNOUNCES THAT ALL TEACHERS WILL RECEIVE REGRET LETTERS IN AUGUST 2023 AND WILL BE PROMOTED

TSC promotion letters 2023 . In December 2023, the Teachers Service Commission (TSC) will promote school administrators who received regret letters earlier in August.

According to an insider, TSC has no choice but to elevate them due to the large number of schools missing headteachers/principals, deputies, and senior teachers/masters, as well as the recent and expected mass retirements.

The Commission sent the teachers regret letters but allowed them to reapply in future promotion advertisements.

Some of them who received regret letters were deputy headteachers functioning as headteachers who were seeking confirmation.

Many individuals lacked the preferred degree certificate from the Commission for leadership positions.

According to TSC data from July 2023, 3,359 public schools lacked a principal.

There were 1,918 public primary schools with no principals, and 1,441 senior schools with no principals.

In total, 3,359 public primary and secondary schools lacked much-needed institutional leadership at a time when the government is implementing vital education reforms.

To fill the openings, the Commission advertised 14,738 teacher promotions.

It issued an application call in January of this year, followed by another in March and again in May after failing to attract the required number of applicants.

Many of those who attended county interviews in March were assigned to schools during the second school term.

The successful instructors were assigned to schools in counties other than their own.

TSC CEO Nancy Macharia has blamed teachers for not being promoted and for their own stagnation.

She charged instructors with being unwilling to apply for promotions in neighboring counties.

Macharia announced that the Kenyan government has allocated sh 1 billion for the promotion of 36,505 teachers in the 20th Kenya Primary School Heads Association Conference.

She stated that the Commission will hold interviews to fill the 36,505 openings that were announced in September of this year.

Primary school teachers will fill 17,914 of these positions.

She bemoaned the inability of teachers to show up for the interviews, a situation she believes has left schools with a scarcity of teachers,

putting additional strain on the teachers already engaged by TSC.

The Commission has struggled to attract enough applicants for promotional jobs, particularly in Special Needs Education, despite decreasing standards.
