Fate Sealed! Schools to reopen tomorrow despite pending court order, read the full details below

 

The dice is already cast and learners in grade four, standard eight and form four will resume learning tomorrow as planned despite a pending court order.

After CS Magoha announced the resumption of learning for the aforementioned, there arose complaints emanating from various quarters especially parents who felt like the one-week schools reopening notice was too short.

The dissatisfaction culminated in a court battle that is yet to be determined before High Court Judge Justice James Makau.

According to the case presented before him, parents are not convinced that their children will be safe in schools given that the CS announced the reopening dates without enough preparations.

Most of the schools still do not have access to enough running water and neither will the social distancing rule be implemented given the scarcity of resources.

The petitioners hence want schools to reopen when Covid 19 protocols have been duly observed to ensure the safety of learners within the learning environment.

On Wednesday, Justice James Makau made a ruling directing the parties involved to convene an urgent meeting and arrive at an agreement as soon as possible but from the look of things, schools will reopen before the case is fully determined.

Parents are already preparing for the Monday October 12 schools’ reopening

A quick glance at the preparations being made by parents for reopening shows a positive response.

In fact, some parents have already deposited school fees for term 2 into the school accounts.

Some were spotted making purchases from uniform dealers on Saturday. Some schools have directed parents to buy masks with labels containing the school name from specific dealers to ensure that learners report back with the masks as directed by the ministry.

According to Education CAS Zack Kinuthia, parents who are still confused or reluctant on whether to send their children back to school despite the pending court order should shelve their fear for the moment and allow learners to resume studies as soon as they can.

Treasury released 14.5 billion for preparation for a safe reopening

Besides, money has already been released to schools in preparation for a safe reopening.

Confirming the release of the funds, PS Belio Kipsang said that 13.2 billion has been sent under the free basic education funds while 1.2 has been disbursed under the free primary education funds.

The new academic calendar starts tomorrow with learners scheduled for a one-week break only before resuming studies in January for the third term.

TSC teachers elocalisation, transfer list per county in December, 2019- Kitui

Leave a comment

The Teachers Service Commission, TSC, has effected the December 2019 delocalization exercise for school heads. In Kitui County a total of 35 teachers have been moved. The handing/ taking over exercise for the administrators is expected to be completed before schools open for first tern on January 6, 2020.

Those moved are heads and principals and their deputies serving in their home counties and those who have served in the same station for a long period. Also on the move are new administrators who were appointed after the just concluded interviews .

Teachers with medical conditions have been spared from the ongoing delocalization exercise. Also spared are teachers aged above 56 years and those set to retire.

The Commission kicked off the delocalization exercise in January, 2018. Other massive deployments would then follow in April, August and December of the same year. Though in April, 2019 the Commission slowed down the transfers as only a handful administrators were moved.

LATEST EDUCATION NEWS; 2020 TSC RECRUITMENT STILL ON AS SCHEDULE GETS REVIEWED AND MERIT LISTS RELEASED, LATEST TSC PROMOTION CRITERIA AND RESUMPTION OF LEARNING IN TEACHER TRAINING COLLEGES

Leave a comment

LATEST EDUCATION NEWS; 2020 TSC RECRUITMENT STILL ON AS SCHEDULE GETS REVIEWED AND MERIT LISTS RELEASED, LATEST TSC PROMOTION CRITERIA AND RESUMPTION OF LEARNING IN TEACHER TRAINING COLLEGES

Below are the key highlights of reports from our education sector and the TSC this week.

TSC REVEALS BITING TEACHER SHORTAGES AS MORE THAN 300, 000 SEEK THE 11, 574 TEACHING VACANCIES

It is no longer breaking news that Kenya is indeed short of over 100, 000 teachers. While appearing before the Senate education committee yesterday, TSC CEO Dr. Nancy Macharia made it clear once more that more funds should be allocated for new recruitment so that the commission can recruit at least 20, 000 new teachers every year to plug the biting teacher shortages.

Her request however comes at a time when the Cabinet Secretary Treasury Ukur Yatanni recently announced government plans to freeze employment in the public sector for the next three years following the harsh economic times ushered in by the pandemic.

The senators who wanted to understand the hiring criteria which will be used to promote and hire teachers to ensure the process is fair to all qualified teachers were reassured that the commission has put in place mechanisms to attract, select, appoint and retain competent staff to serve as institutional administrators.

LATEST TSC PROMOTION CRITERIA FOR SCHOOL ADMINISTRATORS

According to Dr. Macharia, primary school teachers within the administrative cadre who fall in job group K, GradeC2 can rise to job group P, Grade D1 under the new grading system adopted after the implementation of the Collective Bargaining Agreement, CBA.

Secondary school teachers on the other hand within the administrative cadre can rise from job group C5 (senior master) to D5(senior principal).

KUPPET has petitioned TSC to reinstate the common cadre promotion grades. KUPPET secretary-general Akelo Misori also said that the fate of 3, 000 diploma teachers who need a promotion from grade C2 to C3 is still not clear.

TSC REVISED SCHEDULE FOR HIRING 11, 574 TEACHERS, MERIT LISTS HAVE ALREADY BEEN GENERATED

It is now clear that the Teachers Service Commission has not shelved plans to recruit 11, 574 teachers. 5,000 teachers will be hired to support the government’s 100 percent transition policy from primary to secondary schools.

The remaining 6, 574 tutors will be hired to replace those who exited service due to natural attrition.

A revised schedule for the upcoming recruitment of teachers indicates that merit lists have been generated and dispatched to respective county directors ahead of the exercise.

Applicants will know their fate starting Thursday next week as the selection process and filling of employment forms kicks off.

TSC employment letters will be sent to successful candidates between October 8 and 14.

This will pave way for vetting of final lists and handling of complaints which will be done at the county levels between October 15 and 22.

All returns will then be received at the commission’s headquarters between October 23 and 24. The newly-recruited teachers will then report to their new work stations by January 4, 2021.

RESUMPTION OF LEARNING IN TEACHER TRAINING COLLEGES

Meanwhile, final year teacher trainees have been recalled back to their colleges to sit their final exams.

Third-year teacher trainees will resume on 5th October 2020 and close on 16th October. The two weeks will allow them to complete their exams and clear colleges for continuing students in the first and second year who will resume learning on 19th October 2020 and close on 18th December 2020.

2020 Teachers’ Head Count, Electronic registration: TSC to hire enumerators

Leave a comment

The Teachers Service Commission, TSC, will hire enumerators to execute the Electronic registration of all teachers. The physical head count of tutors in all public learning institutions will kick off in May this year.

According to TSC Deputy Secretary Kennedy Mulunda, a pilot biometric registration exercise will be carried out in seven (7) counties. The exercise is expected to be executed in 143 institutions spread across the counties of Uasin Gishu, Homa Bay, Garissa, Kilifi, Kitui, Bungoma and Nyeri.

“The different schools will represent different Geographical and Sociological spheres,” He added. Mulundu who was speaking at the Kenya Institute of Curriculum Studies (KICD) in Nairobi on Thursday (during the stake holders’ consultative meeting) said the Biometric capture of teachers will help curb absenteeism and enable the Commission to plan for the exit and replacement of ageing staff.

Speaking at the same event, Ibrahim Mumim (the TSC Director in charge of Administrative Services) said graduate enumerators will help capture the data that will be electronically validated by the school heads. Mumin said the last teachers’ census exercise was carried out 21 years ago; in 1999.
