Tie-Breaking in Teacher Selections: How TSC Prioritizes Candidates.
The Teachers Service Commission (TSC) has issued a recruitment drive for teacher interns to join the TSC Internship Program in junior secondary schools.
This guideline details the requirements and steps involved in the recruitment and selection process for the 2024/2025 financial year.
In the selection process for teacher interns, the Teachers Service Commission (TSC) has established clear guidelines to address situations where applicants have equal scores.
This ensures fairness and transparency in the recruitment process. Here’s how the TSC prioritizes candidates in case of a tie:
1. Length of Stay Since Graduation
- Criteria: The first consideration is the length of time since the applicants graduated.
- Rationale: This approach favors candidates who have been in the job market longer, suggesting they may have more experience and readiness to teach.

2. Strength of Academic and Professional Certificates
- Criteria: If applicants still tie after evaluating their graduation dates, the next factor is the strength of their academic and professional qualifications.
- Rationale: This includes assessing the grades achieved in their educational qualifications, with higher grades indicating a stronger academic performance.
3. Subject Grades Consideration
- Criteria: In instances where candidates tie at the aggregate level, subject-specific grades will be evaluated.
- Rationale: This allows the selection panel to prioritize candidates based on their proficiency in the subjects they intend to teach, which is crucial for ensuring quality education.
