TSC transfers for teachers; How and when a teacher can be given a transfer
|The Teachers Service Commission, TSC, can transfer you from one station to another. The transfer can be effected either upon request by a teacher or can be initiated by TSC.
In case the transfer is initiated by TSC, you will be eligible for the TSC transfer allowance. See details on how to fill the form here.
The transfer allowance is an allowance that is meant to cushion teachers as they settle down in their new stations. It is paid to a teacher transferred outside their sub-counties.
The transfer allowance is equivalent to one month’s basic salary of the teacher.
When a teacher wishes to be transferred, he/ she must fill the TSC transfer form. This form can be downloaded here.

I truly appreciate this post.Really thank you! Really Cool.
I reguested a transfer and I got to o another county am I eligible for a transfer allowance?
TSC is exploiting teachers if it is true that transfer with promotion from one county to another county in Kenya does not qualify a teacher to get transfer allowance. I was transferred with promotion from one county to another starting 1st September 2020. The transfer was initiated by TSC. Another letter for promotion latter came indicating my promotion begun 12th November 2020. On inquiry about my transfer allowance, I was told I do not qualify since my transfer was with promotion. So September and October I was doing “donkey work, no payment as a Principal and no transfer allowance because I was promoted”. This is very terrible exploitation if TSC works like that.
Appreciate you sharing, great blog post.Really looking forward to read more. Want more.
