TSC employment letters for new teachers

October 5, 2025 Maverick John Leave a comment

Are you a teachers who has been recently employed by the Teachers Service Commission, TSC? Congratulations for this major achievement. Before you report to your teaching station, the TSC should send a letter of employment (Letter of probationary employment).

This letter, also called the posting letter, is meant for all newly recruited teachers after TSC has successfully vetted the teachers’ documents. The letter is sent to the teacher through the station where the teacher has been posted to serve under TSC terms.

In the letter the Commission Secretary spells out the entry level of the teacher i.e Secondary School Teacher II for teachers entering the profession as degree holders. The station where the teacher has been posted and the subjects to be handled are also written on the employment letter. Your starting salary scale is also given on your letter.

TSC TERMS OF EMPLOYMENT FOR NEW TEACHERS

If you are a newly recruited teacher then you must work on probation for a period of not less than six (6) months. In some cases the probation period may be extended if the teacher’s performance is unsatisfactory; at worst, the teacher’s employment may be terminated before completion of the probation period. To be confirmed on permanent terms, the head of institution fills a recommendation form for the teacher that is sent to TSC for approval.

You are expected to proceed to the posted institution as indicated on the employment letter and you are given a grace period of 30 days from the effective date; as stated on the employment letter.

Immediately you report to duty, the Head of institution should fill a casualty and send it to TSC, so that you can be put on the payroll.

The employment letter also spells out the expected basic salary per year depending on the entry grade of the teacher. The teacher is also entitled to monthly allowances pegged on his/ her grade. Allowances that the teacher may get include, but not limited to: House allowance and Commuter allowance. Teachers working in areas classified as hardship get hardship allowance on top of the two allowances. While, those working at schools with differently abled learners also receive Special allowance.

You should be ready to work in any part of the country where the Commission feels his/ her services are required. Additionally, you will have to serve at the initial work station, where the first posting has been made, for a period of not less than five (5) years before requesting for a transfer. Though, in some cases you may be transferred under special consideration from the Commission on such grounds as Medical and insecurity; as may be deemed fit by TSC.

The employment letter is also copied to the Principal or head of institution and the TSC County Director.

TSC to teachers- Get Covid 19 Vaccine or face disciplinary action

October 5, 2025 Maverick John Leave a comment

The Teachers Service Commission, TSC, has ordered all teachers to receive the Covid 19 jab or face disciplinary action. Consequently, all teachers are expected to urgently receive two doses of the Covid 19 vaccine.

“Following the upsurge currently being witnessed in the (Covid 19) positivity rate and increasing numbers of Covid 19 infections across the country, it is imperative that you mop up teachers and officers under your respective jurisdiction to get vaccinated,” TSC Boss, Dr. Nancy Macharia, says in a memo addressed to all TSC Regional, County, Sub County Directors, Curriculum Support Officers and Heads of Institutions.

The government has observed that most public servants; including teachers, have deliberately avoided getting vaccinated. The government now says disciplinary action will be taken against the defiant public servants and teachers.

Teachers who will fail to heed to the TSC directive would be guilty of committing a punishable offence referred to as insubordination. This is as a result of failure to obey official/instructions from supervisors e.g. Commission Secretary, Heads of Institution, County Directors and Sub-County Directors.

Consequently, the Commission has threatened to interdict teachers who would have failed to be vaccinated by elapse of the given deadline.

Dr. Macharia assures teachers that the quickest way for life to return to normal is for most people to get vaccinated.

“We are here therefore to urge all our teachers who got the first dose to take advantage of the ongoing second dose vaccination campaign to gain full immunization.” She says.

According to TSC, as of last Saturday, August 14th 2021, a total of teachers have been vaccinated with the first dose, while 110,342 have received the full dose.

“However, given that we target to vaccinate all the 330,671 teachers on TSC payroll and thousands teaching in private schools, the number so far vaccinated is still not impressive.” Says Dr. Macharia.

It remains to be seen if teachers will heed this latest directive and receive the vaccine.

TSC releases new requirements for pension processing and payments

October 5, 2025 Maverick John Leave a comment

Are you a retired TSC teacher? Are you wondering how you can have your pension paid immediately? Worry no more. The Teachers Service Commission, TSC, has made necessary adjustments to ensure quick processing of pension for retired teachers.

The mandatory retirement age is sixty (60) years. A notice will be issued two years before the date of retirement. The Commission may issue a shorter retirement notice under special circumstances.

Upon receipt of the retirement notice a teacher shall;

Promptly forward all the required documents listed in the notice.
Indicate full particulars of his/her bank account in the bank forms.
Commute a fraction of his/her pension up to a quarter.
Confirm Tax status with KRA and settle any tax liabilities.

Scenarios where one has to wait for a long time for the pension to be paid are now long gone.

Documents required by TSC to process pension for retired teachers

To ensure faster processing of pension payments, retiring teachers need to avail the following documents:

Duly filled TSC clearance certificate.
Two copies of bank plate both sides.
Two copies of national ID card both sides.
Duly completed option to commute pension form in duplicate.
Duly completed lump sum payment form (bank form).
Two copies each of all promotion letters/certificates.
The earliest copy of pay slip showing Women’s and Children’s Pensions Scheme (WCPS) deductions for male teachers.
Copies of marriage certificates/affidavits to confirm names for married teachers whose documents have different names.
Teachers who served as Untrained Teachers to attach NSSF statement.
Two copies of KRA PIN certificate

The Commission then forwards the approved pension cases to the National Treasury which effects the payments. Find full details on how pension is calculated in the link below;

TSC to move teachers in April

October 5, 2025 Maverick John Leave a comment

The Teachers Service Commission, TSC, is gearing up for massive teacher transfers in April this year. The Commission will be targeting Principals in County and Sub-County schools plus primary school head teachers.

Those to be moved are administrators who have overstayed in the same station for nine years and above. Also targeted are teachers working in their home counties.

The Commission’s Deputy Director in charge of staffing Dorothy Owuor through a circular dated February 26 asks all regional directors to prepare a list of school administrators who have overstayed and those working in their home counties.

“This information should reach this office on or before 4th March 2021.” She directs.

“Schools to be filled by the newly appointed Principals in Grade D3 to be left vacant.” She adds.

Those to be exempted from the transfers are teachers aged above 55 years. The delocalization exercise had been slowed down as a result of the Corona virus pandemic and prolonged closure of schools.

The Commission kicked off the delocalization exercise in January, 2018. Other massive deployments would then follow in April, August and December of the same year. Though in April, 2019 the Commission slowed down the transfers as only a few administrators were moved.

The exercise has seen the execution of transfers for thousands of long serving principals and school heads; with some supporting and others opposed to the delocalization policy. A number of school administrators moved, so far, were those serving in their homes.

Others had also served in the same stations for a long time. Targeted administrators were mostly transferred to other counties and in some instances different regions.

Deployment of school administrators

The Commission is currently compiling lists of successful candidates in the just concluded promotions interviews. The interviews were carried out between February 8 and 19, 2021 at designated TSC County offices countrywide. Apart from increased perks, some of the candidates will be deployed to administrative positions.

The responsibility of appointing all primary school and secondary schools’ administrators (apart from extra county and national schools) has since been decentralized to the counties and regional offices.

It is the sole responsibility of the Regional Director (RD) to select, appoint and deploy successful candidates. This shall be done in liaison with the respective county directors. A merit list and copies of appointment letters are then be sent to the head quarter (addressed to the Secretary TSC) by the RD.

It is important to note that the appointment and deployment of the principals of extra county and national secondary schools is done at the head quarter by the Director in charge of staffing.

These new changes to deployment process took effect from February 13, 2020.

TSC to transfer heads and deputies in mixed schools

October 5, 2025 Maverick John Leave a comment

TSC LATEST NEWS TODAY- The Teachers Service Commission (TSC) is planning a major shake up in schools’ administration after this year’s national examinations. This is after the Commission adopted a new policy that will govern deployment of administrators. According to the new policy, principals and deputies of mixed schools are not supposed to be of the same gender.

TSC Boss, Dr. Nancy Macharia, has directed all the TSC Regional Directors implement the policy that is aimed at fostering inclusivity in public schools. She directs regional directors are to liaise with the county directors who are to identify mixed schools that have heads and deputies of same gender and subsequently place the deputies appropriately after the national examinations.

“Identification and deployment of institutional administrators is premised on career progression guidelines and the policy on appointment and deployment of institutional administrators (2017). The process is underpinned on values and principles of governance which include but not limited to: equity, equality, inclusiveness, non-discrimination and affirmative action,” Macharia says in a circular addressed to all Regional TSC Directors.

Mixed schools with Principals who both are of the same gender will see one of them getting the marching orders. Macharia wants the list of the heads and deputies sent to her before April 30 once the placement is completed. This will lead to massive transfers of the affected administrators; mostly deputies.
