TSC Establishes a Deadline for 36,000 Promotion Applications
TSC Establishes a Deadline for 36,000 Promotion Applications. The Teaching Service Commission (TSC) has announced a major opportunity for teachers to apply for 36,000 vacancies, with the closing date for applications set for 8 September 2023. The promotions will cover nine different grades, responding to concerns about the stagnation of teaching careers.
This development comes shortly after successful negotiations on a teacher pay review and is aimed at supporting teachers at various levels within primary and secondary schools as well as teacher training institutions.
Here is a breakdown of some promotional opportunities:
– 12,716 vacancies for the position of Grand Master.
– 10,819 teachers will be promoted to senior teachers in classical elementary schools.
– 700 vacancies for the positions of head teachers in institutions for students with special needs.
– 216 vacancies for the position of associate professor for class C4 at the faculties of education.
– There are also 108 leading main positions and 34 main main positions.
Interested teachers are required to submit their applications through the TSC portal by September 8. Funding for these 36,275 events was allocated by the Treasury to the tune of Ksh 1 billion.
Last week, many teachers were disappointed after they did not get the promotional post that TSC had been advertising since December last year. The council had to re-advertise the vacancy three times, citing a lack of qualified candidates.
Advertisements will be processed in accordance with the promotional guidelines used by the commission.
“Eligible candidates must submit their applications through the TSC portal” TSC CEO Nancy Macharia said in a statement.
The teachers’ union accused the TSC of stagnating the careers of its members, while the KPK blamed the national government for not allocating promotional funds. In the current budget, the commission was allocated Sh1 billion, although it requested Sh2.2 billion.
These promotions offer teachers the opportunity to advance their careers and contribute to the education sector in Kenya. Teachers should carefully study the available positions and follow the application guidelines provided by TSC to have a chance to advance their career in the teaching profession.
