The Teachers Service Commission (TSC) has guaranteed that all 46,000 intern teachers will secure employment, providing much-needed relief and stability in the education sector.

The Commission also assured  the National Assembly education committee that it would analyze the data and provide an accurate breakdown of teachers shortage.

TSC boss Dr Nancy Macharia stated that has been in communication with the education ministry and schools, stressing the need for urgent action.

“Schools, especially JSS, are poorly staffed. The commission has not followed the rules of staffing; some subjects have excess staff while others lack teachers,” Committee Chair Melly noted.

Dr. Macharia reassured the committee that all 46,000 intern teachers would be employed, and an additional 20,000 teachers would be recruited by January.

She acknowledged that many Junior Secondary Schools (JSS) are poorly staffed, with some subjects overstaffed and others under-resourced, contrary to the rules of staffing.

During the meeting, the National Assembly education committee also discussed promotions and the preparations for Grade 9, as the first cohort of JSS learners is set to transition next year.

When TSC opened applications for 46,000 teaching vacancies, over 300,000 hopefuls applied, with 144,000 candidates vying for just 39,500 junior school positions.

This situation underscores the high unemployment levels among teachers in the country.
