KUPPET attempt to block TSC from deploying secondary school teachers to junior secondary didn’t bear fruit.

Sources say TSC is in the final process of deploying over twenty thousand secondary school teachers to JSS in 2025.

TSC CEO Dr. Nancy Macharia had ordered for immediate registration of secondary school teachers employed after the year 2015 to facilitate their deployment to JSS.

TSC has turned to excess teachers in secondary schools to address teacher shortage in Grade 9 class next year.

Thousands of secondary school teachers will be idling as all secondary schools will not have Form one class from January 2025 as Competency Based Curriculum (CBC) takes over.

The Commission has directed the teachers to be deployed to junior secondary schools near their current working stations.

TSC also plans to deploy a small number of primary school teachers to handle grades 7, 8 and 9 classes next year.

The Commission is under pressure to address a looming teacher crisis in junior secondary as currently the teacher to class ration is 1:1.
