The first phase of this training will cover piloting of English delivery in both primary and secondary schools in some selected sub- counties countrywide.

The advert reads:

“The overall aim of this assignment is to enhance continuous Teacher Professional Development(TPD) for teachers of English subject. The consultancy will provide technical support to the Teachers Service Commission (TSC) to develop and implement the school based teacher support system for the English subject in targeted sub-counties.”

providing professional development training in subject matter as well as pedagogical content knowledge to teachers of English in the targeted sub-counties.

The institution will therefore be required to support the TSC in collection and validation of the required data for the relevant Disbursement Linked Indicators (DLIs) and relevant indicators in the project’s results framework.
An independent firm will be recruited separately to review and verify
results achieved under the SBTSS program for the English subject, and other DLIs under this project.

the first two years of implementation of SBTSS, the intervention will be scaled
up to cover all primary and secondary teachers of English in the over 5,500
primary schools and additional 1,500 secondary schools in the targeted subcounties.” The advert further states.
