TSC Circular on release of Promotion Letters dated 14th May 2025
To: All Regional Directors, County Directors, and Sub-County Directors
From: Secretary/Chief Executive Officer
Subject: Status Update on the Release of Promotion Letters
The Commission wishes to address the growing concern regarding the delay in the release of promotion letters for teachers who recently underwent interviews for various administrative and senior teaching positions.
Please be informed that while the promotion process has been concluded and successful candidates identified, the release of appointment letters has been delayed due to the following considerations:
1. Budgetary Alignment: Final approval and release of funds from the National Treasury is still pending, which directly affects implementation timelines.
2. Ongoing Administrative Procedures: The Commission is finalizing internal verifications to ensure compliance with relevant public service regulations and to avoid any legal or procedural challenges.
3. Stakeholder Engagement: Consultations are ongoing with key stakeholders, including the Public Service Commission and the teachers’ unions, to ensure a smooth and transparent rollout.
We acknowledge the anxiety among affected teachers and stakeholders.
The Commission is working diligently to resolve the remaining issues and will communicate the exact dates for the release and dispatch of promotion letters in due course.
You are kindly requested to convey this information accurately to all concerned parties within your jurisdiction and advise teachers to remain patient as we conclude this process.
Your cooperation is highly appreciated.
Dr. Nancy Macharia
Secretary/Chief Executive Officer
Teachers Service Commission
