TSC requires 36,804 teachers for 100 per cent transitionThe Government requires 36,804 teachers in the next three years to implement the 100 per cent transition rate of pupils from primary to secondary school. This is according to a report by the Teachers Service Commission (TSC) tabled before the National Assembly Education Committee yesterday. TSC will also be forced to hire 135,165 intern teachers to address the shortfall in its teaching staff. The 100 per cent transition policy is being implemented concurrently with the roll-out of the new curriculum, and therefore the need for more tutors. “For delivery of service, TSC ensures that teachers married to each other are not posted to different counties," said Dr Macharia.
