TSC urged to change its teacher hiring rules
The Teachers Service Commission (TSC) is being urged to change its teacher hiring rules to focus more on a candidate’s overall education rather than just their Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (KCSE) scores. The Kenya National Union of Teachers (KNUT) argues that the current rules unfairly disadvantage applicants who may not have done well in secondary school but have since improved their qualifications.
KNUT Secretary General Collins Oyuu expressed concern that requiring diploma teachers to have at least a C grade in KCSE ignores the progress many people have made after finishing school. He noted that some successful educators, like professors and university lecturers, did not have high KCSE scores but later achieved great academic success.
Oyuu believes it is unfair for the TSC to deny teaching positions in junior secondary schools based solely on these initial grades. He pointed out that many teachers have worked hard to earn degrees and advanced qualifications while juggling full-time jobs, and he urged the TSC to prioritize their higher education when hiring.
He shared the story of a student who started with a low KCSE score but went on to study at colleges in Kenya and abroad, eventually becoming a professor. This example shows that early academic performance should not be the only measure of a teacher’s ability.
Oyuu also mentioned that KCSE results do not accurately reflect a student’s skills, as they can be influenced by various factors like socioeconomic status and school conditions. He suggested that some students might have performed better if they had attended better schools or had more resources.
Given the ongoing shortage of teachers, Oyuu called for a more inclusive hiring approach. He highlighted that many teachers are overwhelmed, managing over 100 students in classrooms, which negatively affects the quality of education.
To improve the situation, the union is asking for cooperation between Junior Secondary School (JSS) and primary school teachers to eliminate disparities in staffing. KNUT is urging both the TSC and the government to rethink their hiring practices and adopt a more progressive approach to teacher recruitment.
Teachers receive payment from TSC for attending RLM training sessions
The Teachers Service Commission (TSC) has finally paid Principals, Head Teachers, Teachers and ICT Champions who undertook online training on Remote Learning Methodologies (RLM).
The training that was undertaken in five days saw Secondary school Principals trained first and were followed by two (2) teachers from every Secondary and primary schools countrywide.
The full day sessions ran from Monday 07/06/2021 to Friday 11/6/2021.
The training covered a number of content areas that included:
- Concept & Delivery of Remote Learning
- Learning Management System
- Accessing Digital Content for Remote Learning
- Pedagogies of Remote Learning
- Assessment in Remote Learning
- Assistive Technologies
- Monitoring Remote Learning
- Policy Framework Supporting Remote Learning
- Role of Stakeholders in Remote Learning
Amount paid.
But, it is the amount paid by TSC that has caught the teachers by surprise. This is after the Commission decided to reimburse Sh940 to the teachers; to compensate the bundles used during the online sessions.
The money was deposited to teachers’ bank and Sacco accounts; where the monthly pay is also disbursed.
According to the teachers who undertook the training, the amount paid by TSC on 21st July, 2021 is far much lower than what was consumed in form of the bundles.
“The Teams App (used for the online sessions) consumed Colossal amount of bundles. It is a pity that the Commission has only decided to reimburse a fraction of the amount spent”, complained one teacher.
Other teachers vowed never to participate in such trainings unless the payment terms are revealed before hand. But, with the Commission cracking the whip on teachers who fail to heed to its directives, the teachers would have limited options; than to just train.
