Updated Thu, August 11th 2016 at 00:00 GMT +3The Kenya National Teachers’ Union (KNUT) has told the Government to offer tutors an acceptable pay rise in October to forestall a conflict. KNUT Secretary General Wilson Sossion warned that teachers would not compromise on a pending Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA) with the Teachers Service Commission (TSC) due for signing in October. On Tuesday, head teachers rejected a proposal that compels them to pick exam papers and take responsibility for any leaks. Mr Sossion warned that he would walk away from CBA negotiations if TSC delayed a deal or tried to impose a bad deal on teachers. He also warned TSC not to use performance contracts for teachers as a tool to determine their promotion.
