KUPPET, TSC; C4 and C5 Teachers Are Scheduled for Salary Increases and Promotions.
There is cause for celebration for Kenyan educators, especially those in Job Groups C4 and C5. There is an agreement between the Kenya Union of Post Primary Education Teachers (KUPPET) and the Teachers Service Commission (TSC) that gives these long-serving teachers priority when it comes to promotions. This action responds to KUPPET’s worries about these job categories’ stalled career advancement.
Teachers who have held C4 and C5 jobs for more than ten years are the target of the agreement. KUPPET highlights that these teachers should be promoted following such a noteworthy tenure. Within the TSC framework, promotions will provide them with opportunities for continued career advancement in addition to a well-earned pay boost.
It is anticipated that elevating C4 instructors will have a cascading impact. By moving to C5 and D1 roles, they will create room in C4, which will allow instructors who are currently locked in Job Group C3 to advance.
This increases mobility for teachers generally and honors those who have dedicated a great deal of time to their positions.
Subject to parliamentary budget approval, the TSC also intends to give permanent hiring of Junior Secondary School (JSS) intern teachers top priority. By doing this, the educators’ jobs are secured, and the JSS program gains a committed and long-term staff member base.
Although the agreement between TSC and KUPPET is a step in the right direction, obtaining more financing is necessary for it to be implemented successfully. To help with these teacher promotions, KUPPET has asked the government for an additional Sh1 billion.
The initiative’s timetable and breadth will be determined in large part by how these funds are allocated.
This agreement shows a dedication to honoring and compensating Kenyan teachers for their significant efforts.
Together, the TSC and KUPPET are focusing on permanent employment and promotions in order to make the teaching environment more appealing and fulfilling. Teachers and Kenyan education’s future both gain from this, in turn.
