Teachers in Kenya are a happy lot following a ptoposed budget review which if adopted will see to it that the TPD training cost is met by the government through the ministry of education.

Appearing before the national assembly’s education committee last week, TSC Boss Dr Nancy Macharia was taken to task over the manner in which the Kshs 6,000 TPD training fee was arrived at.

Ms Mutual stated crystal clearly that the burden will soon be lifted from teachers.

Her sentiments are based on the deliberations and decisions arrived at by the committee.

“As a committee, we agreed that we will factor Teacher Professional Development, TPD in the Ministry’s budget and the process is ongoing,” Mutual remarked.

If approved, teachers will no longer be obliged to bear the blunt of training owing to the hard economic times that have hit almost every household in Kenya.
