KEY TAKEAWAYS

Out of 14, 613 approved teachers’ applications, 10,934 will affect primary teachers while 1,984 headteachers and 189 deputy head teachers will also be transferred in the exercise. In addition, 1,316 secondary teachers and 226 high princ schools will be transferred.

The Teachers Service Commission (TSC) has approved the application for the mass transfer of 14,613 teachers ahead of the resumption of learning on January 23, 2023.

TSC boss Nancy Macharia gave the green light to comply with the deadline issued by the National Assembly’s committee on education to reverse the delocalization policy whereby teachers were posted away from their homes.

The approvals of teachers’ delocalization come before the lapse of the deadline given to the TSC by the National Assembly’s committee on education to reverse the delocalization policy that saw teachers posted away from their homes.

The teachers have to report to their new stations before schools open on the 23rd of this month. The change of guard in schools across the country is starting ahead of the opening of the first term of this academic year.

The TSC boss instructed the commission’s secretary and all regional directors to ensure a smooth process and facilitate the teachers to settle before schools reopened.

Out of 14, 613 approved teachers’ applications, 10,934 will affect primary teachers while 1,984 headteachers and 189 deputy head teachers will also be transferred in the exercise. In addition, 1,316 secondary teachers and 226 high princ schools will be transferred.

One key factor considered in the mass transfer includes the gender balance, age, health as well as disability status of the teachers. The exercise is the first mass transfer conducted by the TSC after the pandemic, which saw the process halted indefinitely.

The delocalization policy saw teachers who were transferred to different counties expected to serve at least three years in Northern Eastern regions and five years in other regions before requesting a transfer to the commission.

The TSC had been given until the end of this month January 2023 to allow teachers to serve in their own regions, a departure from the policy instituted by TSC. A total of 12,019 transfers will be conducted at the regional level by the TSC regional directors, and 2,594 transfers will be inter-regional transfers effected from the national headquarters.

The officers both at the regional and national headquarters will consider gender balance, the age and health of the teachers, and the teacher’s disabilities in placing them in their new schools.
