TSC addresses advertisement of 20,000 permanent and pensionable jobs
The Teachers Service Commission (TSC) has issued a critical warning to the public regarding fraudulent recruitment advertisements circulating online
The Teachers Service Commission (TSC) has issued a critical warning to the public regarding fraudulent recruitment advertisements circulating online.
In a notice on Tuesday, November 18, the commission cautioned Kenyans against falling victim to fake news and misinformation about teacher recruitment, emphasizing that all legitimate vacancies are announced exclusively through official channels.
“Beware of fake news and misinformation. All available vacancies are always declared through our website http://tsc.go.ke,” TSC stated in its alert.
The warning comes amid widespread circulation of documents claiming to advertise 20,000 permanent and pensionable teaching positions for Junior Schools, which have been marked with a prominent ‘FAKE’ stamp by the commission.
The fraudulent advertisement, circulating on social media platforms, falsely claims that TSC is inviting applications for teachers on permanent and pensionable terms of service, along with detailed eligibility criteria and application procedures.
The counterfeit notice purports that candidates must be Kenyan citizens, hold a minimum diploma in education, and be registered teachers with the Teachers Service Commission.

It also provides an application process, directing interested candidates to submit their applications through the TSC website at www.tsc.go.ke under the ‘Careers’ section by 11:59 p.m. on December 27, 2025.
TSC has made it clear that the recruitment exercise is entirely fabricated and has warned applicants against fraudsters who may attempt to extort money from unsuspecting job seekers.
The TSC alert is part of a growing concern about fraudulent job advertisements targeting job seekers in Kenya who are desperate for employment.
The Kenya National Examinations Council (KNEC) recently faced a similar situation when it was forced to caution the public against a circulating social media post falsely claiming the agency was recruiting teachers and college tutors.
On Monday, November 17, KNEC dismissed the advertisement as fake and urged job seekers to avoid engaging with such posts.
