Good News For Teachers As Treasury Allocates Money For Promotion
In an effort to acknowledge and reward the hard work and dedication of teachers, the Treasury has allocated Sh1 billion to the Teachers Service Commission (TSC) for teacher promotions.
While the allocated amount falls short of the TSC’s original request of Sh2.2 billion for teacher advancements, it still represents a significant step towards addressing educators’ concerns.
This funding will particularly benefit approximately 14,000 teachers who possess higher qualifications but have remained at the same professional level.
The promotion initiative encompasses teachers in both secondary and primary institutions, including principals, assistant principals, senior masters, head teachers, and deputy head teachers. With more than 7,720 positions available, this move offers long-awaited career progression opportunities for teachers who have felt stagnated in their roles, ultimately hindering their professional growth and motivation.
