The Teachers Service Commission (TSC) will close September promotion applications on Friday 8th September 2023.
After closing the application portal the Commission will start to interview teachers in their counties.
A number of teachers who were transferred from their working stations have raised concern after they faced hitches during applications.
The teachers still have their TMIS details indicating they are in their former schools. Their TPADs are also in previous schools.
In the online application teachers are required to submit their 2020, 2021 and 2022 TPAD scores.
