KNEC is targeting professionals currently teaching in either Primary School Grades 4, 5, and 6; Junior School Grades 7 and 8; Senior School (teachers for Grade 10 learners in 2026); Teacher training colleges (DTE-PP&P and DSTE); and Stage-Based Pathway levels (Foundation, Intermediate or Prevocational).
Applicants must meet several minimum requirements, including unquestionable integrity, professional or subject-area expertise, and at least three years of teaching experience.
