TSC heaps praises on Africa’s Best Teacher Jepkosgei Chemoiwa

Jepkosgei Chemoiwa, a Physics and Mathematics teacher at Emining Boys High School in Baringo County, was feted on September 10 for her outstanding dedication to excellence and innovation in the classroom.

The award, established in 2019, celebrates teachers across Africa who go beyond academics to foster positive values, inspire critical thinking and drive community transformation.

In a statement, the Teachers Service Commission (TSC) hailed the recognition, describing it as both a personal triumph for Chemoiwa and a national milestone.

“On behalf of the Teachers Service Commission and the entire education fraternity in Kenya, we extend our heartfelt congratulations to Jepkosgei Chemoiwa for being honoured with the 2025 African Union Continental Best Teacher Award,” said acting TSC chief executive officer Eveleen Mitei.

She noted that Chemoiwa’s success affirms the high calibre of Kenyan teachers whose work has consistently been recognised internationally.

“This prestigious recognition affirms Chemoiwa’s unwavering commitment to excellence, innovation, and transformative teaching. Her dedication to nurturing scientific inquiry and critical thinking among learners exemplifies the highest ideals of the teaching profession,” Mitei said.

The commission added that her win reflects personal dedication as well as Kenya’s position as a hub of exemplary teaching talent across the continent.

Mitei said the award reinforces teachers’ collective resolve to invest in quality education for all.

“Her exemplary service inspires a renewed sense of purpose and pride among teachers across the country and reinforces our collective resolve to invest in quality education for all,” she stated.

Kenya has previously celebrated teachers who rose to international acclaim.

In March 2019, Peter Tabichi, a science teacher at Keriko Mixed Day Secondary School in Pwani Village, Nakuru, was awarded the Global Teacher Prize.

He received $1 million (about Sh129 million at today’s exchange rate) for his extraordinary commitment, having donated 80 per cent of his salary to learners from underprivileged backgrounds who could not afford uniforms or books.

The AU’s Continental Best Teacher Award is conferred in partnership with UNESCO’s International Institute for Capacity Building in Africa.

It is anchored on the African Union’s Agenda 2063 and the Continental Education Strategy for Africa (CESA 16-25), which prioritise quality education as the backbone of development.

As Chemoiwa joins the ranks of Africa’s most celebrated educators, her story shines a light on the transformative power of teaching and the enduring impact of teachers who dedicate their lives to shaping future generations.

TSC postpones Promotions interviews

Leave a comment

The teacher Service Commission (TSC) has postponed nationwide teacher promotion interviews for teachers

Interviews for primary school teachers in job groups C1 through C4 were set to begin on December 4, 2023, in many subcounties, and end on December 15, 2023.

However, the Commission has decided to postpone the exercise due to the extreme El Nino-enhanced rains that have been seen and continue to occur across the country.

The interviewees’ return date is unknown, but it will mostly depend on how the rains develop.

Many teachers have yet to get text messages advising them of the suspension of this operation from local TSC sub-county offices.

Teachers start their strike in a bid to push TSC implement CBA phase 2

Leave a comment

𝐌𝐮𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐠’𝐚 𝐓𝐞𝐚𝐜𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐬 𝐯𝐨𝐰 𝐭𝐨 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐮𝐞 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐤𝐞 𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐮𝐧𝐟𝐮𝐥𝐟𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐝 𝐝𝐞𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐬

Members of Kenya Union of Post Primary Education Teachers (KUPPET) from Murang’a County have vowed to continue with their strike until the government heeds to their demands.

Speaking to the press, KUPPET Chair, Murang’a branch, Michael Gachema, stated that the strike will go on until the government addresses the pertinent issues affecting teachers across the country.

One of the grievances, Gachema noted is that more than 1,500 teachers from Murang’a have worked for more than 15 years without promotions and in spite of these teachers having completed the interviews required for promotion, the government has not promoted them.

“Promotions are long overdue for about 130,000 teachers in the country who have been doing interviews for a long time and getting negative verdicts and we are saying it is evil for teachers to work for more than 15 years without any promotion,” he said.

Further, Gachema said that the government failed to honor its pledge of increasing teachers’ salaries by July, exposing teachers to hefty work without good pay.

“Teachers of Murang’a County have boycotted work starting today because the government has failed to honor their pledge; we expected an increment in our pay starting July, our teachers in Murang’a are saying no to labor without good pay.” Gachema said.

The KUPPET Executive Secretary in Murang’a, John Mburu pointed out that for the past six months, the government has not been sending funds to SACCOs and banks even though teachers with loans from these institutions are still having money deducted from their salaries to repay their loans.

“Not remitting funds to Saccos and banks impacts teachers’ credit scores negatively, and risks having them listed at Credit Reference Bureau.” He said.

“Government has been doing deductions but when we go to the Saccos and banks, we are told that money is not remitted to the banks therefore teachers are getting frustrated because they cannot get loans and can be listed in CRB,” he explained.

Mburu also urged the government to disburse funds to the new medical insurance scheme since teachers are using their own money to pay for hospital services yet they have a medical cover.

“Teachers used to be given a medical allowance, but now the Social Health Insurance Fund (SHIF) is not working for teachers as the government has not yet remitted funds. The money is to be remitted to service providers.” Mburu said.

Further, he said that KUPPET demands that Junior Secondary School interns be employed on a permanent and pensionable basis promptly as promised.

The union representatives pleaded with parents to understand that they are fighting for their rights and assured them that teachers would get back to their workstations as soon as the government resolves their issues.

TSC has updated its scoring system for promotion interviews

The Teachers Service Commission (TSC) has updated its scoring system for promotion interviews to combat teacher stagnation and ensure that advancements are based on merit.

This new scoring system evaluates candidates based on various criteria, including stagnation, performance appraisal ratings (TPAD), age, participation in extracurricular activities like sports, drama, and music, as well as the availability of vacancies. It also takes into account gender representation in school leadership, affirmative action for Persons with Disabilities (PWDs), and progressive promotions in Arid and Semi-Arid Lands (ASAL) and challenging-to-staff areas.

According to TSC, points are awarded to teachers who have taken on acting roles or performed administrative duties, such as principal, headteacher, deputy principal, and deputy headteacher. This information was shared in a submission to the National Assembly Education Committee, which is examining the promotion criteria following public concerns.

The Commission highlighted that the length of time spent in acting roles plays a significant role in the scoring process, with those who have served longer receiving more points. This is intended to recognize the responsibilities they managed during their acting periods.

Furthermore, teachers who have remained in the same job grade for an extended time receive higher scores compared to those who have spent less time in that grade, thereby acknowledging their commitment and dedication.

Teachers with higher TPAD scores also achieve better overall scores in the promotion assessment, ensuring that those who consistently perform well are duly recognized and rewarded.

In terms of age, older teachers score higher than their younger peers. For example, teachers aged 55 and above receive more points than those aged 50 to 54, who in turn score higher than those aged 45 to 49. This tiered scoring system values experience and maturity.

The TSC also assesses teachers’ involvement in extracurricular activities at various competitive levels. Teachers who have led students to international competitions in sports, drama, or music receive higher scores than those whose students have succeeded at the national level.

Promotion vacancies are allocated based on availability across different levels. The TSC prioritizes appointing female teachers as heads of girls’ schools to serve as role models while ensuring gender balance in co-educational institutions.

For PWDs, the Commission has established a policy to ensure at least five percent representation in each promotion cycle, in line with national disability inclusion guidelines. In the 2024/2025 financial year, TSC promoted 1,275 PWD teachers, representing 5.049 percent of the total promotions.

In ASAL and hard-to-staff regions, the TSC is implementing progressive promotions as outlined in clause 9.3 of the 2021–2025 Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA).

TSC to employ 20,000 new teachers this year, 2024

Leave a comment

The teachers’ employer is set to recruit 20,000 teachers this year (2024) as the government moves to ease shortage of teachers in junior secondary schools (JSS).

Teachers Service Commission (TSC) Chief Executive Nancy Macharia said the shortage stands at 42,117 following the transition of Grade 7 learners to Grade 8 this year.

Dr Macharia explained that the number of teachers required in junior secondary schools (JSS) this year is 99,045, against the current number of 56,928.

“Government is progressively funding the TSC for the recruitment of additional teachers until optimal levels are achieved,” she said.

The move will further see a reduction of teachers’ workload and better delivery of the Competency-Based Curriculum (CBC), especially when the 1.2 million learners who sat the Kenya Primary School Education Assessment (KPSEA) last year have joined Grade 7 this year.

The government started the rollout of the CBC in 2018, introducing disruptive changes where elementary education is divided into pre-primary and primary, taking two and six years respectively.

This means that the final class in primary school is Grade 6, after which learners transition to junior secondary starting from Grade 7 up to Grade 9.

While JSS is grappling with teacher shortage, primary schools now have surplus 18,194 teachers following a reduction in the number of classes at this level as the CBC rolls out. Dr Macharia said the 18,194 primary school teachers will be equitably distributed to institutions across the country in a move by the Commission to achieve balanced teacher-learner levels.

“The Commission will redistribute all these teachers to schools to ensure all institutions have balanced and lower teacher:learner ratios,” she said.

The government introduced the new curriculum to transform the education system from examination based to competency-based.

Teachers will target to improve learners’ critical thinking and problem solving skills and enhance creativity and communication skills to help them handle real-life situations better.

The move to hire more teachers follows a string of initiatives the Commission has adopted to boost delivery of quality teaching and learning.

The Commission, for instance, retooled 56,928 teachers in October last year ahead of their deployment to junior secondary schools. So far, more than 200,000 teachers have been sensitized on the new syllabus through a joint multi-agency approach.
