A deputy headteacher has been issued with an interdiction letter by his sub county director for allegedly inciting against his headteacher.
The deputy headteacher is said have been working behind the scenes to have his headteacher ejected from the school by parents over poor management.
The headteacher and his deputy are said to have been at loggerheads constantly and were not in any good working relation.
The deputy who is from the local community is said to have instigated the flushing out of the headteacher after the school recorded poor results in the 2023 KCPE exams.
The headteacher is said have faced a group of hostile men at the school gate who ordered him to leave the school compound and never to return.
The men threatened violence should the headteacher chose to return to the school. The school was going on well at the time with deputy and other teachers present and working.
Close sources say the deputy and the headteacher were not in good terms because of the school levies that were collected from parents.
The headteacher is said to have delegated the collection of school levies to a classroom teacher when he arrived at the school from a transfer.
Before his arrival, the deputy headteacher was incharge of collection of the levies. The levies include PTA monies, exam monies, remedial monies, registration and admission monies amongst others.
However when the new headteacher arrived he snatched the collection docket from the deputy after saying during a staff meeting that he is the accounting officer of the school and he can delegate the collection of the levies to anyone he wants.
Trouble started immediately the deputy headteacher was relieved of the money collection duties.
He is said he together with another BOM teacher who is also from the local community started activities which were inciteful against his boss.
Parents are said to have turned hostile with parents meeting getting hot each time they happened.
At the school, teachers were divided. Others were for the deputy headteacher while others were for the headteachers.
The headteacher is said have designed transfer of four teachers who were said to be the deputy headteachers loyalists.
The four teachers were issued with transfer letters which they didn’t apply for. Each was issued with transfer letter in a span of two weeks after a colleague was transferred and reported.
Numerous claims say the headteacher was non-perfiormer and only concerned with school monies.
He lacked strategies for running school and enhancing performance. He divided the staffroom and was a source of teacher demotivation.
An opportunity to expel him from the school had presented when the school recorded a mean score of 192 in KCPE.
A section of parents are said to have waited for the results which will dictate their actions against the headteacher who they termed rogue.
The deputy headteacher with assistance from KNUT is currently fighting for withdrawal of the interdiction letter issued to him by TSC.
His headteacher was issued with a transfer letter and has since reported to another school.
According to TSC a deputy headteacher can easily get interdiction for a number of reasons when working in the school.
One way he can land into deep troubles is by inciting against his headteacher. Another one is by insurbodinating his boss.
Kindly note that we have kept secret the details of the school because the deputy headteacher is fighting for his reinstatement.
