Do TSC really care it’s members!! Teachers are suffering terribly,even after going back to class for further studies,TSC is adamant on promoting teachers.Who will ever give a listening ear to thousands of teachers languishing in dire poverty, while our bosses are big bellied, arrogant,inhuman,merciless and uncaring!! God help the teachers.
TSC, teachers went back to school so that they can advance in their career. Being one of them, kindly purpose to promote us so that we can get motivated.
This stagnation has really affected us, the victims.
Such teachers deserve promotion . Further studies means more effective teaching.
I wish the commission makes perusal of files to justify the teachers in need of promotion as adverts are use less and shortlisting is skewed. Files are the best to identify staff advancement and merit. My take
