Promotion of teachers could be headed for reforms as TSC and Unions embark on a plan to address job stagnation in the profession
Among the proposed changes is the removal of job group B5 the entry level grade for primary school teachers.
It also emerged that job group C5 which applies to secondary school teachers serving as senior master 111,may also be scrapped
Teachers in this category often act as deputy principals when vacancies arise.
The reforms also proposed annual salary increments for Chief Princpals in secondary schools once they reach the highest job group.
If adopted, the changes will streamline teachers carreer progression and address stagnation in promotions.
The least paid teachers,who currently earns sh.23,830 in job group B5,would start at Sh.29,787 which is the pay for teachers in job group C1.
Also proposed is de-tangle teacher promotions from administration roles.
Primary school heads may also benefit with a proposal to expand their promotion ceiling to match that of secondary school heads.
If implemented, the highest paid primary school head,who now earns Sh.96,381,could earn up to Sh.162,539.
More radical proposals to scrap the promotion model adopted in 2018, known as the Career Progression Guidelines (CPG), have been rejected by TSC.
