TSC warns schools over fees

TSC Chief Executive Officer Dr. Nancy Macharia.

The Teachers Service Commission (TSC) has issued a stern warning to teachers over claims of over charging school fees. The Commission says investigations are being carried out over some allegations that some schools are asking parents to pay extra fees; above the stipulated Ministry of Education Guidelines (on school fees).

“The TSC is investigating a few allegations that some teachers are not complying with Government directives on fees,” TSC chief executive Nancy Macharia now says.

The Ministry of Education slashed school fees for national schools by Sh8,500 and that for extra-county and county schools by Sh5,500 to ease the financial pressure on parents.

According to the new fees guidelines, Learners in national and extra-county schools in Nairobi, Mombasa, Kisumu, Nakuru, Eldoret, Thika and Nyeri will pay Ksh 45,000 per year; down from the Sh53,554 that they have been paying annually. This represents a reduction of Sh8,554.

On their part, learners in all other boarding schools including extra county schools that are located in other areas other than the town of Nairobi, Mombasa, Nakuru, Kisumu, Nyeri, Thika and Eldoret will now pay Sh35,000. These learners have been paying Sh40,535 per year. Consequently, their fees has been slashed by Sh5,535.

Students in special needs schools will pay ksh10,860 annually, down from the Sh12,790; that they have been formerly paying.

The new reduced fees structure took effect on July 26, 2021.

Macharia now directs schools to strictly adhere to the fees guidelines.

“I direct that all heads of school to stick to stipulated school fees and avoid loading parents with unnecessary levies,” she says.

TSC urges teachers to go for Covid 19 vaccine

The AstraZeneca covid vaccine to be used in Kenya.

Teachers in the Country have been urged to go for the COVID-19 government vaccine offered free at the various medical centres to protect their lives as well as those of students.

The Teachers Service Commission (TSC) Chief Executive Officer, Nancy Macharia, called on the trainers not to ignore the vaccine, adding that the President granted all teachers an opportunity to get the vaccination regardless of age.

“Let us utilize this  opportunity to protect our lives,” revealing that it is sad to note that so far, the commission has  lost 37 secondary school teachers; including 24 principals, three Deputy Principals and 10 classroom teachers.

Speaking on Monday during the release of exam results for the 2020 Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (KCSE), Mrs Macharia however lauded the 151,494 teachers who have so far been vaccinated as of yesterday.

According to her, this constitutes 48.9 per cent female teachers and 51 per cent male.

This figure she stated was impressive despite the fact that most teachers have been on the move, either during the administration of the examination or during the marking exercise.

“The Commission is impressed with the high rate of COVID-19 vaccine uptake among teachers. Majority of the teachers aged 58 and above have taken the jab,” she said.

In order to professionalize the teaching service and improve the quality of education, the commission is mandated to review entry grades to teaching service and advice the national government. This will raise the standards of teaching profession and attract more quality grades from those who have requisite skills to be in the teaching service.

  • That there shall be a minimum of One – School Term Practicum at all levels of Teacher Education, assessed by external examiners.
  • That the in-service teachers and qualified – registered teachers outside employment be inducted and certified to offer the Competency Based Curriculum.
  • That a Curriculum for Teacher Educators (Trainers) be developed by KICD and TSC in collaboration with Universities and CUE that shall gradually form a basis for employment of (appointment of) Teacher Educators.
  • That Assessment at Teacher Education level shall be a balance of the Formative and Summative.
  • There shall be a need to develop a Kenya Teacher Education Policy to anchor all the proposals in this document.

TIMELINES FOR IMPLEMENTATION OF THE NEW GUIDELINES

TSC proposes that the above be used as a basis for admission into Teacher Education the various levels from September 2020.

In addition to the requirements above, the following shall be required before a teacher is registered by the Commission: –

  • Certificate of Good Conduct; applicants shall be required to present a valid certificate of good conduct upon application for registration.
  • Certificate in Integration of ICT in education – Evidence of training in ICT skills
  • Compliance to chapter six of the Constitution:Tax Compliance Certificate (KRA), Certificate of good conduct (DCI), Higher Education Loan clearance certificate (HELB), EACC clearance and Credit Reference Certificate (CRB)
  • Notes:
  • ECDE applicants with certificates from other bodies other than KNEC and MOE should have their certificates equated by KNEC.
  • Applicants with foreign Degrees and Diplomas in education should have their documents equated by the Commission for University Education (CUE) and Kenya National Examination Council (KNEC) respectively.

NON-CITIZEN TEACHER REGISTRATION

  • Non- citizen teacher should have the following for registration;

  • Vetting letter from MOE.
  • Valid passport
  • Valid entry /work permit
  • The registration certificate issued to non- citizens be temporary and renewable upon renewal of the entry permit.

Key issues to note

  • Enhancement is admissible only in case of inadequate course units in one of the subjects of specialization. (This is not encouraged)
  • Post-graduate Diploma is allowed where one lacks only pedagogical skills.
  • Bridging/ pre-university courses be done away with as they do not address any gap.
  • Persons whose training is in subjects that are not in the curriculum irrespective of a PGDE do not qualify for registration and employment.
  • Students who have undertaken courses(Diploma or degrees) without the minimum entry requirements (who enrolled, who trained and graduated them) do not qualify for registration and employment.
  • Very many fake degree certificates circulating
  • Security marks of the certificates

TSC CEO Dr. Nancy Macharia. The Commission has so far raised over Sh10 billion towards the National Emergency Response Committee on Coronavirus fund.

The Teacher Service Commission (TSC) has finally agreed and signed the new 2021-2025 Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA) with teachers’ unions. The new CBA was signed on July 13th, 2021. Read details on the new CBA below.

In the new non-monetary CBA, female teachers will now ‘enjoy’ an enhanced maternity leave of 120 days; up from the current 90 days.

On their part, male teachers will now proceed on a 21 days’ paternity leave; up from the current 14 days.

The Commission has at the same time offered a preadoptive leave for teachers adopting kids plus a promise to fast track promotions of teachers in arid and semi-arid areas.

SIGNING OF THE 2021-2025 COLLECTIVE BARGAINING AGREEMENTS WITH TEACHER UNIONS

On June 29, 2021, the Teachers Service Commission (TSC) met with officials of all the three recognized trade unions representing teachers in the public sector to kick-start negotiations for the 2021-2025 Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA).

The three unions are: The Kenya National Union of Teachers (KNUT), Kenya Union of Post Primary Education Teachers (KUPPET) and Kenya Union of Special Needs Education Teachers (KUSNET).

At the first meeting held here at the Safari Park hotel, TSC tabled its offer on the CBA. Although the unions’ proposals included financial components, the Commission besieged the parties to factor in the advice of the Salaries Remuneration Commission (SRC) that directed a freeze in salary reviews in the public sector for the 2021/2022 and 2022/2023 financial years.

The Commission also considered the current economic situation obtaining in the country  and  the  persistent  COVID-19 pandemic, which has immensely affected the world of work.

During the negotiations, the teachers’ unions did not agree with the fact that remunerative components would remain as currently obtaining in the teaching service.

Keen to ensure industrial harmony within the sector, the TSC invited the unions to a second meeting on July 13th, 2021 to scale up the negotiations and agree on a new CBA that will succeed the 2017-2021 CBA which expired on June 30th, 2021.

After frank, sincere and open discussions the TSC and teachers’ unions reached an agreement. The Commission, therefore, on 13th July, 2021, signed a new CBA with the three recognized teacher unions to cover the period 2021-2025.

The TSC thanked the unions for embracing dialogue and professionalism in the spirited fight for the rights of their members, who are indeed TSC employees.

TSC, also appreciated both parties for taking into account the current economic situation in the country and the effects of the persistent Covid-19 pandemic.

The TSC thanked all the three unions for hitting yet another milestone in the teaching service. The unions demonstrated restraint, commitment and sacrifice during negotiations, especially in the middle of very harsh economic times in the country.

The Commission thanked all teachers for being committed to serve, toil and shine for the betterment of our children’s education.

TSC assured teachers that it shall work round the clock to continuously improve your terms and conditions of service in the best way Possible.

The TSC vowed to continue providing a conducive environment for all the 330,671 teachers to effectively discahrge and excel in their duties.

As part of the Commission’s efforts to recognize exemplary teachers, the Commission has rolled out an exercise to capture data of all those staff who excel in various spheres of work with a view to rewarding them accordingly as would be decided from time to time.

These areas would include excellence in national examinations, sport, theater, institutional management, innovation, research, and advocacy, among others.

TSC TEACHING SUBJECT COMBINATIONS TO AVOID AT ALL COSTS

A number of teaching subjects are currently flooded by graduates who are yet to be employed by the Teachers Service Commission, TSC. It is advisable that you avoid such subject combinations at university/ college as it will take you many years to be employed.

But, even as you choose your teaching subject combinations, be aware of the various TSC requirements for registration and recruitment. The articles below will be very important in enabling you make an informed decision;

TSC latest requirements for teachers (Must read before you pursue a Diploma or Degree Course in Education)

Current TSC requirements for education (teaching) courses/programmes in Kenya

TSC requirements for primary teachers and details on the new Diploma in Primary Teacher Education Course (DPTE)

TSC latest Academic and Professional Requirements for Registration of Teachers

TSC- Requirements, responsibilities and appointment criteria for Deputy Principals’ positions

TSC- Promotion requirements and responsibilities for Senior teachers’ positions

TSC- Promotion Requirements, responsibilities and appointment criteria for Senior Masters’ positions

1) Kiswahili/History

Despite having a language that is compulsory in all High Schools, this combination has remained flooded making graduate teachers to stay for as long as 5 years without being employed by the TSC. Students going to the university should avoid this combination like a plague for now

2) Mathematics/Business Studies

Another combination that has remained disappointing over the years is this. It is reported that 4 years is the minimum number of years you will stay without permanent employment. For now this combination should be avoided until further notice.

3) CRE/History

Another combination that has demoralized teachers is Religion and History. Due to its nature of comprising only optional subjects, it has remained to be the lowest sought for by employers.

4) CRE/Geography.

This combination comprises of purely optional subjects and is rarely advertised by the Teachers Service Commission. Hence it takes the longest of times for someone to be absorbed by TSC

5) Mathematics/Geography

The nature of Mathematics is that it is stroked /accompanies various other subjects including Chemistry, Physics, Biology, Business Studies, Computer and Physical Education. Therefore, Geography being the only humanity that accompanies Mathematics makes it difficult to be employed by TSC.

Those who want to do Education course should be advised not to do subject combinations that will bring them frustration upon graduation.
Get facts right.Your future is bright if you choose the right combination.
