Mass Transfer Of Teachers To Kick Off With A Human Face.
Teachers could face large number of transfers after the employer announced plans to balance staffing across schools.
Nancy Macharia, Chief Executive Officer of the Teachers Service Commission (TSC), stated that the process will be done with a human face and will be completed by May 9.
Dr. Macharia stated that TSC aims to have a proportionate number of teachers in public schools after it was discovered that some schools were understaffed while others had more teachers than needed.
This means that some tutors will be transferred from schools with more teachers to schools with fewer teachers.
The exercise, according to the commission, aims to improve the teacher-to-learner ratio. The mass transfer is expected to be completed before the start of the school year.
This, despite the fact that she revealed a teacher shortage of 114,581 in primary and secondary schools.
She attributed the tutor shortage to increased enrolment as a result of the large number of school-age children, the 100% transition policy, and the registration of new schools.

Despite the shortage, Dr Macharia stated that the commission was determined to ensure the prudent and equitable distribution of existing teachers in both primary and secondary schools.
“From time to time, we have had to review staffing placements to ensure no part of our country is disadvantaged in terms of sharing the limited teaching resources,” she added.
“The commission will shortly be asking our field officers to conduct a routine exercise of assessing their sub-counties to ensure that all schools have balanced teacher to learner ratios ahead of the start of the new academic calendar,” she explained.
Dr Macharia assured teachers that the exercise would be carried out in a humane manner, with adequate consultations with relevant officers.
