MPs compelled to clarify decision to deny promotion of teachers
The National Assembly Education Committee has been compelled to clarify the reasoning behind the decision it made to deny the recent promotion of over 25,000 teachers.
Guided by Kenya Union of Post Primary Education Teachers (KUPPET) Vihiga branch Secretary General Sabala Inyeni, KUPPET charges the Education Committee with making unjust decisions and excessively overstepping their authority, thereby disrupting the professional autonomy of the Teachers Service Commission (TSC).
Inyeni also remarked that the action was illegal and harmful to the morale and career advancement of teachers nationwide.
This follows merely a week ago after TSC CEO Nancy Mcharia faced scrutiny from lawmakers when she declared the promotions of 25,252 teachers across the nation and submitted the recommendation to the Education Committee for assessment.
The lawmakers expressed concerns regarding the fairness of the criteria used for selection and the regional distribution of the individuals who were promoted.
Nevertheless, KUPPET Vihiga officials allege that the MPs are exploiting the teachers’ recruitment and promotion process to gain political advantage in the lead-up to future elections.

Report Proposes Revised Senior School Funding Model: Implementation Date.
A recent report envisions substantial reforms to the funding systems in senior secondary schools in Kenya, aiming to align financial resources with the specific needs of the Competency-Based Curriculum (CBC).
The document, titled “Final County Dialogue Report 2025,” suggests an entirely new funding framework set to be implemented in January 2026, coinciding with the transition of the first cohort under CBC to Senior Secondary School.
This funding model will be based on pathways chosen by students, wherein technical and science subjects are likely to receive greater financial grants due to the resource-intensive nature of these subjects.
Moreover, additional reforms within the new funding mechanism will influence students’ access to structured career guidance from Grade 7, provided by the Ministry of Education, assisting students in making subject selections aligned with their interests and anticipated future careers.
Furthermore, changes to pathways will be permitted for up to two months following admission to Senior Secondary School, thus allowing greater flexibility for learners.
The report includes measures to limit the transfer of students from the same Junior School into boarding Senior Schools to a maximum of five to encourage diversity, except in regions where fewer alternatives are available within counties.
Private educational institutions will also benefit from this initiative, as the government plans to incorporate them into the national school selection portal.
However, it remains uncertain whether students selecting private schools would obtain government capitation funding similar to that provided to public school students.
The report also advocates for the inclusion of KSL in teacher training programs to address the scarcity of educators in critical fields such as Special Needs Education and vocational subjects.
Government assistance should be extended to private schools to facilitate the procurement of textbooks through a subsidization scheme, along with a comprehensive audit of school infrastructures to ensure readiness for the new pathways.
Improving digital infrastructure in rural and underserved areas will also be a priority, with recommendations for the establishment of solar-powered laboratories and mobile ICT units.
Finally, the report emphasizes the need for a re-entry framework under CBC for learners who have previously dropped out of school, allowing them another opportunity to complete their education.
If these proposals are adopted, they hold the potential to significantly transform the educational landscape in Kenya, making it more inclusive, adaptable, and appropriately aligned with the demands of a contemporary setting.

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. An eum locum libenter invisit, ubi Demosthenes et Aeschines inter se decertare soliti sunt? Cum enim summum bonum in voluptate ponat, negat infinito tempore aetatis voluptatem fieri maiorem quam finito atque modico. Sunt autem, qui dicant foedus esse quoddam sapientium, ut ne minus amicos quam se ipsos diligant. Duo Reges: constructio interrete. Qua ex cognitione facilior facta est investigatio rerum occultissimarum. Minime vero istorum quidem, inquit. Qui autem esse poteris, nisi te amor ipse ceperit? Tubulo putas dicere? Age nunc isti doceant, vel tu potius quis enim ista melius?
Nihilne te delectat umquam -video, quicum loquar-, te igitur, Torquate, ipsum per se nihil delectat?
Nullum inveniri verbum potest quod magis idem declaret Latine, quod Graece, quam declarat voluptas.
Ex ea difficultate illae fallaciloquae, ut ait Accius, malitiae natae sunt.
In qua si nihil est praeter rationem, sit in una virtute finis bonorum;
Honestum igitur id intellegimus, quod tale est, ut detracta
omni utilitate sine ullis praemiis fructibusve per se ipsum
possit iure laudari.
Aliam vero vim voluptatis esse, aliam nihil dolendi, nisi
valde pertinax fueris, concedas necesse est.
Quicquid porro animo cernimus, id omne oritur a sensibus; Non potes, nisi retexueris illa. Ad eos igitur converte te, quaeso. Ergo omni animali illud, quod appetiti positum est in eo, quod naturae est accommodatum. Color egregius, integra valitudo, summa gratia, vita denique conferta voluptatum omnium varietate. Istic sum, inquit. Si qua in iis corrigere voluit, deteriora fecit. His similes sunt omnes, qui virtuti student levantur vitiis, levantur erroribus, nisi forte censes Ti.
Cur iustitia laudatur? Quis est enim aut quotus quisque, cui, mora cum adpropinquet, non refugiat timido sanguen átque exalbescát metu? Graecis hoc modicum est: Leonidas, Epaminondas, tres aliqui aut quattuor; Id Sextilius factum negabat.Omnia peccata paria dicitis.Quid ergo? Atque omnia quidem scire, cuiuscumque modi sint, cupere curiosorum, duci vero maiorum rerum contemplatione ad cupiditatem scientiae summorum virorum est putandum. Nos autem non solum beatae vitae istam esse oblectationem videmus, sed etiam levamentum miseriarum.
Dicet pro me ipsa virtus nec dubitabit isti vestro beato M. Ut placet, inquit, etsi enim illud erat aptius, aequum cuique concedere. Ergo in bestiis erunt secreta e voluptate humanarum quaedam simulacra virtutum, in ipsis hominibus virtus nisi voluptatis causa nulla erit? Illa enim, quae prosunt aut quae nocent, aut bona sunt aut mala, quae sint paria necesse est. Ab his oratores, ab his imperatores ac rerum publicarum principes extiterunt. Non potes, nisi retexueris illa. Iam insipientes alios ita esse, ut nullo modo ad sapientiam possent pervenire, alios, qui possent, si id egissent, sapientiam consequi. Si in ipso corpore multa voluptati praeponenda sunt, ut vires, valitudo, velocitas, pulchritudo, quid tandem in animis censes? Levatio igitur vitiorum magna fit in iis, qui habent ad virtutem progressionis aliquantum. Graece donan, Latine voluptatem vocant.Sedulo, inquam, faciam. Tecum optime, deinde etiam cum mediocri amico. Si ad corpus pertinentibus, rationes tuas te video compensare cum istis doloribus, non memoriam corpore perceptarum voluptatum; Si longus, levis. Nam diligi et carum esse iucundum est propterea, quia tutiorem vitam et voluptatem pleniorem efficit. Quid enim dicis omne animal, simul atque sit ortum, applicatum esse ad se diligendum esseque in se conservando occupatum?
In qua quid est boni praeter summam voluptatem, et eam sempiternam?
Sed nonne merninisti licere mihi ista probare, quae sunt a te dicta?
Si longus, levis;
Habent enim et bene longam et satis litigiosam disputationem.
Verum hoc loco sumo verbis his eandem certe vim voluptatis Epicurum nosse quam ceteros. Nescio quo modo praetervolavit oratio.Sed haec in pueris; Sed quid attinet de rebus tam apertis plura requirere? Cuius ad naturam apta ratio vera illa et summa lex a philosophis dicitur. An eum discere ea mavis, quae cum plane perdidiceriti nihil sciat? At cum tuis cum disseras, multa sunt audienda etiam de obscenis voluptatibus, de quibus ab Epicuro saepissime dicitur. Tu quidem reddes;
Quae est enim, quae se umquam deserat aut partem aliquam sui aut eius partis habitum aut vini aut ullius earum rerum, quae secundum naturam sunt, aut motum aut statum?

Principals Prepare for Transition of Learners to Senior School
A significant number of school principals nationwide are currently participating in training programs aimed at facilitating the transition of Junior Secondary School (JSS) students to Senior Secondary School, which is set to commence next year.
This extensive training initiative, led by the Ministry of Education and supported by the Centre for Mathematics, Science and Technology Education in Africa (CEMASTEA), is designed to engage over 7,000 principals. The primary objective is to equip these educational leaders with the requisite knowledge and skills to effectively implement the new Competency-Based Education (CBE) framework and to guide Grade 9 students as they progress into three specialized pathways in senior secondary education: Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM), Arts and Sports, and Social Sciences.
Nancy Macharia, Chief Executive Officer of the Teachers Service Commission, emphasized the pivotal role of principals in ensuring the success of this transition. She stated, “You are frontline commanders, and your leadership as principals is instrumental. It is essential to facilitate a seamless transition and the effective implementation of the CBE in senior schools.” Macharia further noted that this transition represents a significant milestone, particularly in the introduction of career pathways that align with students’ aspirations and abilities.
“As we prepare for the inaugural cohort of Grade 10 students in 2016, it is crucial to ensure that we have the necessary facilities, adequately trained educators, and a supportive learning environment,” she added. The new curriculum will introduce career specialization from Grades 10 to 12, allowing students to select from the pathways of STEM, Arts and Sports, or Social Sciences. Each student will engage in seven subjects: four core subjects—English, Kiswahili, Community Service Learning, and Physical Education—and three electives corresponding to their chosen pathway.
Macharia articulated that “the modern economy necessitates a workforce that is not only knowledgeable but also adaptable and innovative. The transition to competency-based teaching is intended to prepare learners for diverse post-secondary pathways.” The Ministry of Education has established training centers in all 47 counties and remains committed to training department heads, teachers, and support staff, thereby underscoring the national priority of this transition.
CEMASTEA Director Makoba Kizito elaborated that the training program was developed in response to a survey of 1,300 principals, which identified a need for enhanced understanding of the CBE pathways, admission criteria, and infrastructure requirements. “The STEM pathway will be mandatory in all schools, with each institution expected to offer at least one additional pathway based on its capacity,” Kizito remarked, highlighting the critical role of parents in this transition.
“Parents are integral to the transition process. They will assist students in making informed decisions regarding their educational pathways. There is a pressing need for mentorship and effective communication,” he emphasized. Willy Kuria, Chairman of the Kenya Secondary School Heads Association (KESSHA), indicated that schools are preparing to welcome students in January.
“This training has answered many of the questions we had. Now, we feel ready to welcome our first cohort of Grade 10 learners,” said Kuria.
Kuria acknowledged the initial concerns about managing the shift from the 8-4-4 system, particularly around assessments and new teaching methods.
“The CBC is the best system because it emphasizes formative assessment over high-stakes exams. It will reduce exam irregularities and help students develop practical skills,” he added.
Benson Manoo, Principal of Machakos School praised the curriculum for encouraging creativity and innovation.
“We’ve learned to make use of local resources instead of relying on expensive materials. This system trains learners to be self-reliant,” he said.
Anthony Thuo, principal of Ofafa Jericho high school pointed out the broader economic benefits of the CBC.
“Our modern economy demands more than just knowledge. It requires innovation and adaptability. The CBC is designed to equip learners for multiple post-secondary pathways,” he said.
In Busia County, Director of Education James Ekaliyo noted that the government had already constructed 418 new classrooms and ensured timely textbook delivery during the Grade 9 rollout.
“We’ve also trained principals in private schools to ensure uniform understanding and implementation of the guidelines,” Ekaliyo added.
Education Cabinet Secretary Julius Ogamba, while addressing Parliament last week, emphasized that the reforms would touch more than just principals.
“We are targeting 212,000 teachers for training before next year to ensure the system is fully prepared,” he said, adding that placement will consider students’ choices, merit, school capacity, and results from psychometric tests.
“This process will continue throughout the year. We are preparing not just our schools but the leaders in the institutions. By next year, schools will be ready to welcome the transition seamlessly,” he stated.
Controversy Surrounds TSC Promotion Criteria for 25,000 Educators
Secondary school principals have formally communicated their dissatisfaction to the Teachers Service Commission (TSC) regarding the promotion criteria, asserting that it is inequitable for certain educators.
The principals, through the Kenya Secondary Schools Heads Association (KESSHA), have submitted a petition to both the TSC and the National Assembly, contending that the employer’s quota system for teacher promotions disproportionately disadvantages regions with a higher concentration of qualified teachers.
This petition pertains to the promotional interviews conducted in January 2025 for 19,943 positions that were advertised by the TSC at the end of the preceding year.
The implementation of a quota-based system is likely to create an environment where educators from specific regions face disadvantages, as it unjustly limits opportunities for qualified candidates from areas with a greater number of competent and deserving individuals. Conversely, it inadvertently favors candidates from regions with fewer qualified teachers, regardless of their lesser experience and lower performance evaluations, as articulated in a letter signed by KESSHA Chairman Willy Kuria.
Kuria indicated that the association escalated the matter to the National Assembly Education Committee after receiving no response from the TSC. He alleged that, in certain regions, the TSC invited teachers for interviews who had not fulfilled the requisite six-month tenure in the same job group.
“We obtained this information from county directors, and when we raised our concerns with the TSC, they did not contest the validity of the data. This situation primarily benefited areas classified as Arid and Semi-Arid Lands (ASAL),” stated Mr. Kuria.
He noted that teachers who applied for promotions to Job Group Deputy D2 and below (Deputy Principal II – Secondary School) were neither shortlisted nor invited for interviews, despite fulfilling the established criteria.
“Evidently, this discrepancy occurred in some regions, while in others, the six-month requirement was duly considered, leading to the shortlisting of teachers. Consequently, this will create significant advantages for some regions while severely disadvantaging others, which can be accurately characterized as marginalization,” Mr. Kuria remarked.
He cautioned that if this trend persists, it could result in certain teachers remaining stagnant in their job groups due to the geographical locations of their assignments.
Promotional interviews should prioritize merit, experience, and individual accomplishments. The enforcement of a regional quota system undermines these foundational principles by promoting educators based on their geographical affiliations,” the petition further asserts.
Mr. Kuria urged the commission to explore alternative strategies to foster inclusivity and diversity.
“We implore the TSC to transparently communicate the criteria and qualifications required and to adhere strictly to these standards to prevent creating a false sense of hope among applicants,” he stated.
The promotion of teachers has posed a significant challenge for the commission, primarily due to budgetary limitations, resulting in many educators remaining stagnant in their respective job groups for extended periods.
Recently, the Kenya Union of Post-Primary Education Teachers (Kuppet) demanded TSC to publish a list of all teachers who are eligible for promotion in the 2024 – 2025 cycle.
Further the union called for fair distribution of promotion vacancies across the country. According to the union, the TSC allocated vacancies equally among the 47 counties, regardless of disparities in the number of teachers in each region.
“Given the disparities in staffing levels across the country, such distribution is inherently flawed and unfair to many teachers. A county which has over 11,000 teachers has been allocated the same number of vacancies as another with just 1,000 teachers.
The clear implication is that a teacher in the smaller county is 10 times more likely to get promoted compared to his or her counterpart in the more populous county,” said Kuppet acting secretary-general Moses Nthurima.

Virtutibus igitur rectissime mihi videris et ad consuetudinem nostrae orationis vitia posuisse contraria. Tibi hoc incredibile, quod beatissimum. Primum in nostrane potestate est, quid meminerimus? Neminem videbis ita laudatum, ut artifex callidus comparandarum voluptatum diceretur. Duo Reges: constructio interrete. Quis contra in illa aetate pudorem, constantiam, etiamsi sua nihil intersit, non tamen diligat?
Quid me istud rogas?De quibus cupio scire quid sentias. Quia nec honesto quic quam honestius nec turpi turpius. Sint ista Graecorum;Non est igitur voluptas bonum.At hoc in eo M. Non enim hilaritate nec lascivia nec risu aut ioco, comite levitatis, saepe etiam tristes firmitate et constantia sunt beati. Suam denique cuique naturam esse ad vivendum ducem. Sed vos squalidius, illorum vides quam niteat oratio. Sin ea non neglegemus neque tamen ad finem summi boni referemus, non multum ab Erilli levitate aberrabimus. Est enim perspicuum nullam artem ipsam in se versari, sed esse aliud artem ipsam, aliud quod propositum sit arti. Huic mori optimum esse propter desperationem sapientiae, illi propter spem vivere.
Sic, quod est extremum omnium appetendorum atque ductum a prima commendatione naturae, multis gradibus adscendit, ut ad summum perveniret, quod cumulatur ex integritate corporis et ex mentis ratione perfecta.
Haec mihi videtur delicatior, ut ita dicam, molliorque ratio, quam virtutis vis gravitasque postulat.
Modo etiam paulum ad dexteram de via declinavi, ut ad Pericli sepulcrum accederem.

Iam id ipsum absurdum, maximum malum neglegi.
Aliter enim explicari, quod quaeritur, non potest. Putabam equidem satis, inquit, me dixisse. Deprehensus omnem poenam contemnet. Itaque hoc frequenter dici solet a vobis, non intellegere nos, quam dicat Epicurus voluptatem.
Sed ad haec, nisi molestum est, habeo quae velim. Quae in controversiam veniunt, de iis, si placet, disseramus. Nullum inveniri verbum potest quod magis idem declaret Latine, quod Graece, quam declarat voluptas. Sed erat aequius Triarium aliquid de dissensione nostra iudicare. Quicquid enim a sapientia proficiscitur, id continuo debet expletum esse omnibus suis partibus; Non autem hoc: igitur ne illud quidem. Ut id aliis narrare gestiant? Dic in quovis conventu te omnia facere, ne doleas. Mihi enim satis est, ipsis non satis. Qui convenit? Quae similitudo in genere etiam humano apparet. Hoc uno captus Erillus scientiam summum bonum esse defendit nec rem ullam aliam per se expetendam.
Dat enim intervalla et relaxat. Velut ego nunc moveor. Antiquorum autem sententiam Antiochus noster mihi videtur persequi diligentissime, quam eandem Aristoteli fuisse et Polemonis docet. Tum Lucius: Mihi vero ista valde probata sunt, quod item fratri puto. Restant Stoici, qui cum a Peripateticis et Academicis omnia transtulissent, nominibus aliis easdem res secuti sunt. Minime vero, inquit ille, consentit.Falli igitur possumus. Cupit enim dícere nihil posse ad beatam vitam deesse sapienti. Videamus animi partes, quarum est conspectus illustrior; Et si turpitudinem fugimus in statu et motu corporis, quid est cur pulchritudinem non sequamur? Minime vero probatur huic disciplinae, de qua loquor, aut iustitiam aut amicitiam propter utilitates adscisci aut probari. Bonum integritas corporis: misera debilitas.

KIGARI TEACHER TRAINING COLLEGE LOCATION & HISTORY.
KIGARI TTC: St. Mark’s Kigari Primary Teachers College was established in 1910 by the Church Missionary Society as a training center for catechists and evangelists. Over time, it evolved into a hub for pioneering ideas in agriculture and social welfare. In 1935, the society launched a Normal School that trained a small number of primary school teachers for P4, P3, and P2 levels. Following Kenya’s independence in 1964, the institution was transformed into a public teachers’ training college. Its student body has grown in proportion to its physical expansion, and today, it is among the colleges offering a Diploma in Primary Teacher Education in accordance with the Ministry of Education’s Competency-Based Curriculum guidelines.
St. Mark’s Kigari Teachers Training College is sponsored by the Anglican Church of Kenya. The Anglican Church arrived in Kigari in 1910 through the efforts of Rev. John Comley, a CMS missionary. His contributions included evangelizing to the local community, providing literacy and numeracy education, and establishing a health center to care for the sick. His work led to the establishment of the college, Emmanuel Church Kigari, and several primary and secondary schools in the Mt. Kenya East region.
