The move will affect chief principals, principals, deputy principals, senior masters, and secondary school teachers.

Others are senior lecturers in TTCs, head teachers, deputy head teachers, and senior teachers in both regular and special needs primary schools.

Among these, 12,716 teachers will be promoted to senior masters IV in high schools, while 10,819 will be promoted to senior teachers II in primary schools, both in regular schools.

Additionally, there will be 3,040 senior teachers, 1,930 deputy head teachers in regular primary schools, and 1,928 teachers promoted under secondary teacher I.

This announcement follows a statement by President William Ruto that the promotions reflect the government’s commitment to improving teacher welfare.

Speaking at Nakuru State House after hosting a State Gala for winners of the 95th Kenya Music Festival, the Head of State said that funds have been allocated to support the process.

“In this financial year, we have provided for the promotion of 5,000 teachers directly and 36,000 teachers indirectly. We have allocated Sh1 billion to facilitate this process. We must ensure we promote those teachers who excel in their line of duty,” Ruto said.

The president directed that priority should be given to teachers who have been involved in training students in drama and music.

“I want to recommend that teachers who have scripted, trained, and directed students to the festival should join those to be promoted in the cycle. Those who have excelled have gone beyond the call of duty.”

NB: – Candidates in Asal and Hard-to-staff counties who have served in the current grade for at least 2 years are eligible.
