TSC to employ 4,000 more teachers
ALLOCATION

“Over the years, the commission has consistently requested for increased allocations to employ 20,000 teachers annually. This would translate in hiring 8,000 primary school teachers every year,” Mrs Macharia said.

Meanwhile, Mrs Macharia has directed teachers who will be involved in the management of national examinations this year to be vigilant and uphold the ethical and integrity standards governing the teaching profession.

She also asked the examiners to ensure that any form of examination irregularity is detected, forestalled and appropriate remedial action taken in tandem with the relevant laws and regulations.

COMPROMISED

In a circular dated August 9, and addressed to Principals, head teachers and all teachers, Mrs Macharia asked them not to accept to be compromised at all.

The Kenya Certificate of Primary Education (KCPE) and Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (KCSE) are set to commence on October 29, and November 2, respectively.

“The Commission relies on you for the successful completion of the forthcoming national examinations. On behalf of the Teachers Service Commission, I wish to congratulate and sincerely appreciate you all for your dedication, commitment and devotion towards preparing candidates for the national examinations,” said Mrs Macharia.

INVIGILATORS

She went on: “However, your efforts in moulding the candidates and the enormous investments by parents, government and other stakeholders in this regard may not come to fruition if the integrity of the national examinations is not safeguarded.”

Mrs Macharia explained that centre managers, supervisors, invigilators and examiners will play a crucial role in ensuring that the rules, regulations and guidelines governing the conduct of national examinations are strictly adhered to by all stakeholders.
