TSC Announces Mass Employment Of Teachers, How To Apply
The Teachers Teachers Service Commission (TSC) has announced mass employment of teachers in both senior, Junior and primary schools.
It is a huge relief for graduate teachers after the Teachers Service Commission (TSC) Chairman Jamleck Muturi confirmed that 20,000 slots for intern teachers in Junior Secondary Schools (JSS) are up for grab.
The shortlisting and interview process will be expedited to allow the teachers to report in September when third term for 2024 academic year begins.
The announcement has come a few weeks after the Finance Committee of the National Assembly Chair Kimani Kuria revealed that the government is seeking to allocate funds to hire 20,000 teachers to address the teacher shortage experienced in JSS institutions across the country.

“The funds have also been provided to hire 20,000 interns next month. The policy is now to transition teachers from internship to permanent and pensionable terms,” Kuria said.
The sub-sector has been receiving a huge boost as the government also announced that it has allocated a sum of Ksh18.9 billion for confirmation of all 46,000 intern teachers into permanent and pensionable terms (PnP).

The decision to confirm the 46,000 interns comes after a standoff between teachers and their employer, the Teachers Service Commission, over their job status, which resulted in a walkout, layoffs, and even a pending legal lawsuit between the interns and the employer.
However, even confirmed, it remains unclear where the funds to hire interns announced by Muturi will come from.
