Addressing Teacher Shortage

The government’s plan to recruit over 20,000 teachers aims to alleviate the critical shortage currently faced nationwide. Cabinet Secretary for Education, Ezekiel Machogu, highlighted this initiative during a speech at Kolanya Girl’s National School in Bungoma County.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Government’s Commitment

Since September 2022, the government has already hired more than 50,000 teachers. Machogu emphasized the administration’s commitment to enhancing the educational system, with additional funds allocated for employing 20,000 teachers in the current fiscal year.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Advocating for Teachers

In response to concerns raised by Mary Emase, a member of parliament for Teso South, about the need to recognize and incentivize teachers, Machogu reiterated the importance of valuing teachers to improve overall student performance.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 Impact of Teacher Shortage

The principal of Kolanya Girl’s National School highlighted the negative impact of teacher shortage, with only 40 government-employed teachers compared to the Ministry of Education’s target of 65 teachers.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 TSC’s Response

Despite the Teachers Service Commission (TSC) being the employer, thousands of teachers remain unemployed. To address the local teacher-student ratio imbalance, TSC is exploring opportunities to place teachers abroad in collaboration with the Ministry of Labor and Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 Expanding Opportunities

TSC Director of Legal, Calvin Anyuor, emphasized the need to utilize Kenya’s surplus teacher supply by exploring teaching opportunities abroad. Collaborative efforts with various government agencies aim to send Kenyan teachers to teach English in countries like Germany.

 

 Future Plans

In addition to the current 400,000 employed teachers, TSC plans to hire 46,000 teacher interns on a permanent basis by the next year. These interns, currently serving a two-year term, play a vital role in meeting the growing demand for educators.

 

The massive TSC teacher recruitment initiative reflects a concerted effort to bridge the education gap, ensure adequate staffing in schools, and provide quality education to students across the country.
