After a teacher is absorbed by TSC, he/ she receives an appointment letter that always states that a newly employed teacher remains on probation for a period of not less than six (6) months. However, there comes a scenario when the probation period may be extended if the teacher’s performance is not satisfactory.

Once a teacher serves for a duration of 3 years, he/she is automatically promoted grade C3, previously known as job group L.

According to Tsc, the minimum requirements for one to teach in secondary school is diploma but nowadays majority of secondary school teachers are university graduates.

For the newly Employed teachers under (grade C2 ) initially known as job group K the teacher enjoys commuter allowance of KSH 5000 and rental house allowance of KSH 7500.

Then the graduate teacher can now carry home a total amount of KSH.38000 .This figure though changes if one used to benefit from HELB loan since some amount is deducted.
