TSC Announces 36,000 New Teacher Promotions: How to Apply

The Teachers’ Service Commission (TSC) has announced another round of promotions for more than 36,000 teachers, just one week after promoting 14,000 teachers.

In a TSC circular, teachers will be promoted across nine grades, as the government seeks to allay concerns about their stagnation.

The move, which came a day after salary review negotiations for teachers hit a snag, has been interpreted as an attempt by the commission to partially quell discontent within the teaching community.

The promotions will be distributed throughout primary and secondary schools, as well as teacher-training institutions.

There will be 12,716 openings for the position of senior master, while 10,819 teachers will be promoted to senior teachers in conventional primary schools.

There are an additional 700 openings for the position of senior teacher in institutions for students with special needs and 216 openings for the Grade C4 position of senior lecturer in teacher-training colleges.

The commission also advertised 108 senior principal positions and 34 chief principal positions.

Those interested are expected to submit their applications through the TSC portal by September 8th.

The notification comes one week after the TSC promoted 14,000 teachers who had been waiting since the previous fiscal year.

The National Treasury has allocated Ksh 1 billion to the commission for the 36,275 promotions.
