Kenya Union of Post Primary Education Teachers (KUPPET) secretary-general Akelo Misori. This is after Treasury Cabinet Secretary Ukur Yatani failed to factor in teachers’ salary increment in the Budget. With about two weeks to the lapse of the 2017-2021 CBA, and stalled negotiations between the teachers’ union and the Teachers Service Commission (TSC), the Kenya Union of Post Primary Teachers (Kuppet) has issued a raft of demands to the government to meet before the end of the month. The union’s governing council demanded that the TSC make a counteroffer to teachers on the memorandum of demands for the 2021-2025 CBA without further delay. Kuppet also demanded the Salaries and Remuneration Commission (SRC), the Treasury, and TSC make public all correspondences touching on teachers’ salaries since 2018, adding that they decidedly supported the union’s demands for teachers’ salaries review.
