The ministry of education has directed that only TSC certified teachers be assigned classes in Kenyan schools effective January 2017. Education CS Fred Matiang'i said on Monday that the ministry has instructed county commissioners to enforce the order. The administrators will conduct an inspection in all schools to ensure that only qualified teachers handle lessons at the institutions. In February, Matiang'i pointed out that he would take action on institutions that operated and hired unqualified teachers. The Teachers Service Commission Act 2012 Article 237 requires the commission to register all qualified teachers before they can provide lessons in any public or private institution.
