According to new features on the recruitment webpage, prospective Teachers Service Commission, TSC, interns will now need to disclose their ethnicity.
Online applications must be filed by qualified candidates who are interested in the post using the Careers link on the organization’s website, tsc.go.ke, or at teachersonline.tsc.ke.
The instructors’ employer has added a new button called “Ethnicity” under the section headed “Edit my details.” All applicants are prompted to identify their tribe on this page while updating their profile information on the recruitment portal.

The study’s conclusions show that 36 of the 42 legally acknowledged tribes received some of the 20,990 open teaching slots. This suggests that none of the six tribes managed to hire a single teacher.
After the hiring process was complete, 30,550 new teachers were hired, with the remaining slots going to primary schools. Junior Secondary Schools (JSS) received the majority of the new teachers.
