The process of release promotion letters for successful teachers to counties has started despite numerous criticism directed to Teachers Service Commission (TSC)

The teachers employer has resolved to validate the list that it published on its website and as a result the process of  publishing part of the letters that a  source has said has started to be released to various counties.

According to the commission, it is  only those  teachers whose TSC numbers appear on the TSC published promotion list will be issued with promotion letters.

The commission published a list of 724 pages on its website  will all TSC numbers  only for 36,505  that were successfully promoted following interviews done in December and January, 2024.

However Kenya National Union of Teachers (Knut) and the Kenya Union of Post Primary Education Teachers (Kuppet) faulted the teachers’ employer for not giving full details of teachers promoted.

KUPPET and KNUT raised several  questioned why the commission did not provide the names against the TSC numbers against the sub counties or counties published together .

The teachers’ unions claimed that without the real names and other details even dead teachers could easily find their way to the merit list.

All the  36,505 successful teachers whose details were published will be issued with TSC promotion letters and will be required to submit five Chapter six documents underlined in the constitution for release.
