TSC teacher interdiction letter

Leave a comment

The Teachers Service Commission, TSC, may decide to reverse the interdiction of a suspended teacher. In such a case, the Commission sends a revocation of interdiction letter to the teacher.

Several reasons may make the TSC to reverse the interdiction of a teacher. A number of reasons may precipitate such a decision. These include:

  • Irregular and faulty interdictions i.e if the Commission detects malice in the allegations made,
  • Interdictions being done without adherence to the laid down procedures e.g. failing to give teachers an opportunity to appear before the investigation panel together with the accusers and witnesses to defend themselves against the allegations raised.
  • Poor and inadequate investigations at the institution/county level,
  • Delays in submission of supportive evidence e.g. availing duly signed Board Of Management minutes, statements and report in support of allegations raised.
  • Issuing casualty returns on desertion before expiry of fourteen (14) days.
  • Failure to fill in/forward casualty and casualty/ appointment returns on time.
  • Failure to carry out prompt and exhaustive/comprehensive investigations prior to interdiction.
  • Failure  to involve the Board of Management, BOM, during investigation process,
  • Failure to give specific charges on interdiction.
