TSC extends retirement age for school administrators

The Teachers’ Service Commission (TSC) has decided to renew contracts of school administrators. This move has angered a section of teachers; more so deputy school heads.

Primary school head teachers who have attained the mandatory retirement age have had their contracts extended by the teachers’ employer, TSC.

A sharp reaction has been drawn from deputy head teachers in a number of schools across Kisumu County who had hoped to be promoted to fill the vacancies left as the head teachers go on retirement.

  • Mrs. Pamela Juma of Matthews Ondiek Primary School in Kisumu Central,
  • Mr. Tom Onyando of Kindu RC Primary School in Kisumu East,
  • Mr. Paul Kaunda who has been the longest serving head teacher of Kosawo Primary School in Kisumu Central.
