Introduction to TSC’s Confirmation
Following a recent announcement, the Teachers Service Commission (TSC) has approved the confirmation of intern teachers into permanent and pensionable positions. This decision comes after directives from the Budget and Appropriations Committee, emphasizing the availability of sufficient finances for the 2024–2025 fiscal year.
Committee’s Assurance and Directive
Chairman Ndindi Nyoro affirmed the committee’s readiness to allocate necessary resources for verifying all junior secondary school (JSS) interns into long-term roles. He emphasized the government’s commitment to funding this initiative.
Immediate Hiring Directive
Nyoro instructed TSC to expedite the hiring process for all 46,000 interns without delay upon budget approval. This directive aims to avoid postponing the confirmation until January 2025, ensuring timely employment.
Resolution of Strike and Return to Work
The intern teachers recently concluded a three-week strike, resulting in agreements signed on June 1st. They resumed duties promptly on June 3rd following the removal of show-cause letters issued during the strike.
Reinstatement and Support
TSC has committed to reinstating teachers whose registrations were revoked and ensuring withheld payments are released. Despite initial challenges, some JSS instructors opted to forego retooling opportunities after securing permanent roles with pension benefits.
