How a Teachers Service Commission, TSC, teacher can apply for a transfer

New TSC Teachers Recruitment Guidelines, Requirements, Qualifications and Recruitment Process
TSC recruitment guidelines 2020/2021.
Transfer requests are normally considered for approval by the Appointment Board, once, at the end of the year. However, the Commission can transfer a teacher at its discretion. A teacher wishing to be considered for transfer should do so by:

  1. Filling in a transfer application form through the head of institution. Transfer forms are available at TSC offices countrywide or can be downloaded from TSC website.
  2. Completed application forms should be sent to the TSC or its agents by the head of institution.
  3. Transfers for primary school teachers within the county will be handled by the TSC County Director.
  4. Transfers outside the county will be handled by the TSC headquarters. Applications for transfer for tertiary institutions are processed at the TSC headquarters.

Transfer requests submitted to the Commission will be acknowledged promptly. The decision of the Appointment Board will later be communicated to the teacher. Transfers will be granted subject to availability of vacancy and replacement.
