Why TSC Revokes Your Application for Teacher Registration Certificate
The Teachers Service Commission (TSC) is Kenya’s oversight body in charge of regulating teacher registration and ensuring the teaching profession’s integrity and standards are maintained.
However, in certain instances, the TSC may revoke an application for a Teacher Registration Certificate, reflecting the thorough scrutiny used to assess the appropriateness of those entering the teaching profession.
To ensure the quality and integrity of education, teachers must meet severe registration requirements. The process not only evaluates academic and professional skills but also investigates the character and conduct of those wishing to enter the noble profession of teaching.
Relevant academic and professional qualifications
First and foremost, having proper academic and professional qualifications is essential. Teachers act as beacons of knowledge and guidance; thus, they must have the necessary expertise to deliver education effectively.
The Teachers Service Commission (TSC) rightfully denies registration to individuals who lack these qualities, as they are unqualified to perform the tasks assigned to educators.
Moral character
Furthermore, prospective teachers’ moral character is also important. Teachers not only educate their students but also serve as role models.
Therefore, TSC forbids individuals of questionable character, especially those convicted of felonies like sexual misbehavior or crimes against students. Such convictions raise warning flags, indicating possible threats to students’ well-being and safety.

Conviction of criminal offence
Individuals with a history of criminal acts that jeopardize their eligibility to serve as teachers face denial of registration. Trust and confidence from students, parents, and society at large are critical components of good teaching.
Convictions for actions that are inconsistent with the ideals and obligations of educators justify the refusal of registration in order to protect the dignity of the teaching profession.
Prejudicial to peace, good order or good governance
Furthermore, engaging in actions that undermine peace, good order, or governance in Kenya is grounds for denial of teacher registration.
Teachers have an important role in shaping society’s future, and their actions should reflect principles that promote harmony and progress. Any involvement in activities that contradict these ideals casts doubt on an individual’s eligibility to serve as a teacher.
Physical or mental infirmity
Finally, physical or mental disabilities that impair an individual’s capacity to perform teaching obligations result in denial of registration.
Teaching necessitates active participation and contact with students, using both physical and cerebral faculties to effectively carry out tasks. Individuals with such disabilities are unable to achieve these conditions, leaving them ineligible for teacher registration.

Finally, the refusal of teacher registration for a variety of reasons demonstrates the dedication to upholding standards, integrity, and student well-being in the educational sector.
By guaranteeing that only competent, ethically upright, and capable persons enter the teaching profession, educational institutions fulfill their obligation to nurture and empower future generations.
