KUPPET calls out TSC over teacher promotion process

KUPPET calls out TSC over teacher promotion process, calling for the inclusion of more cadres.

Officials from Kuppet’s Kisii branch angrily opposed the exclusion of some teachers from the anticipated teacher promotions on Friday.

The Kenya Union of Post Primary Teachers officials termed the plan a mockery to teachers, especially those in job groups C2, C3 and C4.

About 14,000 job openings for the promotions have been announced by the Teachers Service Commission.

Kuppet union branch secretary general Abincha Mogire said the teachers are being lied to.

He specifically questioned a claim made by TSC CEO Nancy Macharia that all teachers had already been given consideration for promotions.

Abincha stated that the administration should cease misleading the public about the fact that thousands of teachers are still stuck in one employment station.

He claimed that low morale was caused by the fact that many secondary school teachers had stalled, some for almost 17 years in the same position.

“This can even even be revealed by the teachers themselves or their directors. There is a deliberate move by those who did the advert to discredit the true picture of what is on the ground,” he said on Friday.

The Union Secretary was flanked by Laban Ouko, branch chairman during a press conference.

The officials told TSC to recall the advert and a release a new one where teachers from all cadres are considered for promotion.

“It’s unfair that our teachers are given sad Christmas news,” Mogire told journalists. 

The deadline for submission promotion application was Friday 23.

“We are sad people, we don’t know how we are going to take our Christmas because our members are crying and they are always disturbing us to ensure we escalate this information so that it can be acted upon,” Abincha said.

The Union leaders also demanded that Medhill Hospital be added back to the list of facilities that teachers can use for medical care under the health insurance program.

“We want it reinstated including the group cover for us because it was important for our members, “Abincha said.

Ouko on his part said the teacher promotions are not a privilege but a right pegged in the profession.

“Every employee looks forward to some promotion at some point and it is not good that any teacher be deliberately locked out of opportunities for professional progression,” he said.

At least 14,000 teachers are set for promotion according to the circular by TSC.

Ouko said it is sad that those being locked out are the majority.

“It will cause nothing but low morale in the service. There is nothing bad in any industry like a demotivated staff,” he said.
