According to a statement given by the Kenya Union of Post Primary Education Teachers, Kuppet Secretary General Akelo Misori, diploma teachers enter the teaching service in grade C1 T-Scale 6 former J unlike their counter-parts, degree holders who enjoy better salaries since they join the service in Grade C2 T-Scale 7 previously referred to as Job Group K.

Following the signing of the 2017-2021 Collective Bargaining Agreement, CBA between TSC and teachers’ unions, the Commission started moving them advertising 1,000 vacancies every fiscal year.
Their Promotion just like that of degree holders are pegged on the Career Progression Guidelines, CPGs as opposed to the former Schemes of Service fronted by the Kenya National Union of Teachers, KNUT.
The previous CBAs relied on the Schemes of Service which left these diploma teachers on the highway leading to stagnation in one job group for up to six years.
” The schemes of service subjected them to work in their entry grade, C1 for three years before getting promoted but the current career progression guidelines are flexible offering them an interview paving way for upscaling,” said Misori.
According to TSC CEO Dr Nancy Macharia, the CPGs take into account performance and dedication in the teaching service.
