TSC Agrees to CPG Review; Listed Salary Scale/Grade to Be Abolished.
The Teacher Service Commission (TSC) has received a proposal from the Kenya Union of Post Primary Education Teachers (KUPPET) that would eliminate post-primary teachers’ salaries, eliminate the grade C5 cadre, and conduct CPG reviews.
Teachers will be able to progress from C4 to senior management positions as a result of this change, according to KUPPET.
In addition, KUPPET has requested that TSC grant senior teachers at grade D4 non-administrative roles, even in the absence of a promotion to school administrator.
After their meeting with the TSC in Naivasha, KUPPET spoke to the media and stated that the primary objective of the discussion was to address the teachers’ complaints regarding the recent promotions.
This covered the more than 50,000 teacher promotions that happened between May of last year and the most current March 2024 promotions listings.
After receiving several complaints, TSC granted KUPPET’s request to review the Career Progression Guidelines (CPG).
The current CPG, in accordance with KUPPET, has been the cause of the teacher stagnation.
The meeting decided to create new guidelines for career progression, which will require information gathered from public participation.
It was also mentioned that since 2017, a number of teachers had not received a promotion. This issue was settled during the Naivasha summit, when it was decided to implement new adjustments starting in June 2024.
Misori claims that the recently published rules provide a guarantee of quicker professional advancement by reducing the time required for advancement.
