TSC to hire 10,300 intern teachers in Primary and Secondary schools: Application dates, requirements and vacancies

The Teachers Service Commission, TSC, is set to hire about 10,000 intern teachers this October. This is in a bid to reduce the teething shortages in Secondary and Primary Schools. 4,300 teachers will be recruited on contract basis in Primary schools, while Secondary schools have been given 6,000 slots. The Commission is targeting to employ over 80,000 interns to help reduce the staff shortages in public primary and secondary schools that have been occasioned by introduction of free education.

Those in Secondary Schools will get a stipend of Kes 15,000 per month but which will be subjected to statutory deductions. the Statutory deductions include HELB Loan, PAYE tax, Medical fees (NHIF) and NSSSF; among others. Their counterparts in Primary schools will pocket a gross salary of Kes 10,000 monthly.

In the past, TSC has given preference to teachers employed on contracts when filling permanent and pensionable vacancies. It is expected that the recruited interns would thus be employed on permanent basis when the vacancies are advertised.

TSC adds yet another (new) teachers’ registration, employment requirement.

The Teachers Service Service Commission, TSC, is mulling the introduction of a new requirement for teachers seeking to be registered with the Commission. TSC Chief Executive Officer Dr Nancy Macharia has proposed that teachers who may need to be given the registration number must first work as interns. According to Dr Macharia, Graduate teachers would be issued with teaching certificate and registration certificate after the successful completion of the internship programme at an assigned school. This will thus prevent graduate teachers from serving in other professions (mostly in the banking and insurance sectors) before they re-emerge during interviews to be recruited by the Commission. The current TSC employment guidelines give graduates who have stayed out for longer periods an upper hand compared to fresh graduates.

This latest development comes at a time when TSC is set to recruit about 87,000 intern teachers to bridge the teething gap in public schools. Already, the Teachers’ Unions; which were initially opposed to the internship programme, have given the commission green-light to employ the interns.

If this new requirement sees the light of day, then it will be added to the long list of requirements that a teacher has to fulfill before getting a TSC registration certificate. Currently, to be given a registration certificate one has to provide:

The Commission registered a total of 9,199 new teachers between 1st January and March, 2019. Names, ID Numbers and TSC Numbers of these teachers have since been posted on the TSC website.
