TSC Promotions 2021; Commission Calls off Promotions for Diploma Teachers, sets new interview dates, find out why

TSC promotions 2021– The Teachers’ employer, Teachers Service Commission, TSC, has put off the scheduled Interviews for diploma teachers promotions 2021 and set new dates.

This move follows a public outcry and the outpouring of complaints from the affected teachers who would have missed out on this golden opportunity for a possible pay rise.

The afore-mentioned diploma teachers are qualified and interested in attending the upcoming TSC promotions interviews but some of them are currently offering essential services- marking the Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (KCSE 2020) examinations.

The Commission has already compiled and dispatched lists of successful applicants who have been shortlisted to fill the 1,000 slots available for diploma teachers in 2021 to their respective counties now that all Applications are done online.

The affected teachers can therefore take a deep sigh of relief after the Kenya Union of Post Primary Education Teachers (Kuppet) intervened.

TSC promotions for diploma teachers 2021- revised dates

Many of the affected teachers had already reported to the designated Knec marking centres in Nairobi only for them to receive invitations for the interviews, issued on a very short notice.

Following many complaints, the union conducted a survey among the examiners to establish the depth of this problem.

Indeed, many examiners were having torrid times trying to decide wether to shun the marking exercise and attend the interviews or not.

“In the circumstances, we urge the Commission to immediately call off the interviews slated for this month and conduct the same in May or on any convenient dates after the marking of the KCSE exams.” Reads a demand letter from Kuppet Secretary General Akello Misori.

TSC Promotions Results Processing Status 2021; TSC Teachers’ Promotions Results Marred by Disquiet as Political Leaders Decry Unfairness

Did you recently get shortlisted for TSC Promotions interviews but you are yet to receive your results?

New details reaching us at newspro.co.ke now indicate that teachers who attended TSC teachers promotion Interviews in December 2020 and February 2021 for the various advertised Promotion Vacancies may have to exhibit the patience of a cobra before their results are processed by the Teachers Service Commission.

This is after the teachers’ employer received complaints that may derail the early release of TSC teachers promotions results in 2021.

On Friday April 30, the TSC Boss Dr. Nancy Macharia was obliged to host ‘univited guests’ in matters TSC Promotions to resolve an impending umpasse over the manner in which the 2021 TSC teachers’ promotions were conducted.

The leaders from the purpotedly alienated Kajiado County who included Honourable Ole Metito Katoo, George Sunkuyia, Judith Pareno, and Mary Seneta were seeking an amicable solution to claims that Kajiado County’s TSC promotion vacancies were being dished out to “foreigners” while the sons of the soil were left to their own mechanisms of ekking a living.

TSC Promotions 2021 Official Petition by Kajiado Teachers

According to the petition tabled before the Teachers Service Commission Chief Executive Officer, CEO Dr. Nancy Macharia; Kajiado teachers have been incessantly left in the cold after being locked out of available leadership positions by a newly introduced system of promoting teachers.

The new TSC system of promoting teachers dictates that teachers legible for TSC headship positions- school heads, sub county directors and county directors must first serve in Job Groups L, M and N.

Teachers in Kajiado therefore feel left out and forced to serve under foreigners installed by the Commission in various TSC administrative posts.

The petition further stated that all Maasai teachers in Kajiado County with the required leadership skills and experience have been denied TSC Promotions following the introduction of Career Progression Guidelines, CPGs.

” Through Career Progression Guidelines, CPGs the Commission has been selectively promoting teachers to the said positions and therefore discriminating against deserving cases. All Maasai teachers in Kajiado are being denied Promotion opportunities as a result of the policy,” reads the petition in part.

Following the ensuing conflict, TSC Promotions Results 2021 may take a little bit longer before being released since the petitioners have roped in the Senate to intervene with a view of incorporating affirmative action by TSC when it comes to the appointment of resident teachers to leadership positions to promote regional balance.

They also want the TSC promotions guidelines to be reviewed in such a way that priority is given to Maasai teachers before “others” are considered for the slots.

So what is next?

In her defence, the Teachers Service Commission CEO Dr. Nancy Macharia said that all TSC Promotions above common Cadres are guided by a common code of regulations.

” To this end, all Promotions above common Cadres are filled on a competitive basis as per the provisions of the Code of Regulation for Teachers and the Constitution of Kenya,” said Macharia.

She further added that interested teachers across Kenya are free to apply for established TSC administrative posts irrespective of their home county.

” Once a vacancy is established, the Commission advertises it through the same media for all interested teachers across the country to apply,” she added.

KUPPET raises eyebrows about the ongoing TSC teachers’ promotions 2021

The marking scheme currently being used during the 2021 TSC Teachers’ promotions interviews by the Teachers Service Commission, TSC, has been criticized for being biased against teachers serving in ‘third world’ schools as they are commonly referred to.

The marking scheme at our disposal seems to be favoring teachers from ‘giant’ schools that are known for producing better results at the Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (KCSE) examinations level.

For instance, if your mean has been “low” for the last three years then you will score poorly during the interviews. The maximum mark for a teacher with a mean of 11 (A- minus) and above has been set at 20. Whereas a teacher with a mean of below 2 (D- minus) will be awarded one mark only.

Another scoring area is the improvement index; with teachers who have recorded a positive improvement of 2 and above garnering 20 marks.

The Commission is currently carrying out interview sessions for the about 33,000 shortlisted teachers.

Kenya Union of Post Primary Education Teachers, Kuppet, has come out to castigate TSC for sidelining some administrators in the ongoing promotions.

“We also draw your attention to the apparent discriminative procedures the Commission
has instituted against some principals, deputy principals and senior masters who merit on
the basis of their qualifications. Initially, we received complaints from members who
faced difficulties applying for the promotions via the TSC portal. We brought the matter
to the attention of your officers, who attributed it to a system glitch.” Says Kuppet Secretary General Akelo Misori.

In a protest letter sent to TSC, Akelo says many administrators currently serving in sub-county schools were blocked from applying for promotion to head extra-county and national schools. Those who managed to apply have not been short-listed for interviews.

In addition, the Career Progression Guidelines, CPG, being used for the interviews have placed substantial weight on the status of schools where the applicants serve. It is obvious that county and sub-county schools cannot compete fairly with the well-established ones.

A glaring difference between the two categories of schools is in the entry qualifications for their Form One intakes. However, the vast majority of Kenyan students and teachers
(including principals) are based in these county and sub-county schools.

The Kenya National Union of Teachers, Knut, has been opposing the CPG and has engaged the Commission in court battles.

Also given a raw deal are teachers with higher qualifications as their papers have been rendered useless.

“Unless this system is changed, many qualified teachers-including those with post-graduate qualifications might not get their deserved promotion. This policy will also balkanize Kenya, given the inequalities in economic development across the country.” Misori adds.

Equally affected are teachers serving in Teachers Training Colleges (TTCs) have been systematically sidelined from these promotions. This is because the Scoring in heavily weighted on the applicant’s marks under the Teacher Performance Appraisal and Development, TPAD, appraisal tool.

“Through CPGs (Career Progression Guidelines) the Commission has been selectively promoting teachers to the said positions and, therefore, discriminating against deserving cases. All Maasai teachers in Kajiado, are being denied promotion opportunities as a result of the policy,” the petitioners said.

According to the petition, the policy has disadvantaged teachers in Kajiado County who have the pre-requisite experience and skills an opportunity to get promoted.

The teachers say that none of the resident teachers in the county have attained the Job groups L, M and N.

The petitioners, therefore want the Senate to intervene with a view to have affirmative action by the TSC for appointment to leadership positions of resident teachers and the policy be reviewed to give priority for promotion to leadership positions to resident teachers after which other teachers serving in the county could be considered

Sources in the Friday meeting intimate that the team discussed teacher management issues affecting Kajiado County.

A few days ago, Dr. Macharia appeared before the Senate Committee on Education so as to respond to the petition by the teachers in Kajiado County.

Nominated Senator Judith Pareno accused TSC of open bias and demanded investigations, claiming non-Masaai teachers from one community have taken over schools leadership in the “entire Masaailand”.

“All headteachers and their deputies are non-Masaai, most of them are from one community. We will be seeking to show the committee that there is discrimination,” complained Pareno.

On her defense, the TSC Boss told the Senators that the commission is guided by the Code of Regulations for Teachers in effecting promotion.

“To this end, all promotion above common cadre grades and to administrative positions are filled competitively as per the provisions of the Code of Regulation for Teachers and the Constitution of Kenya,” Said Dr. Macharia.

“Once a vacancy is established, the commission advertises the same through print and electronic media for interested teachers across the country to make applications for the positions.” She added.
