How to Access and Download Three-Year TPAD Reports Required for TSC Promotion Interviews

Securing a career progression milestone with the Teachers Service Commission (TSC) requires navigating one of the most rigorous administrative screening processes in the Kenyan public service.

With the rollout of massive career progression vacancies—spanning 34,016 posts from grade C1 to D4—competition is unprecedented. Because promotion panels operate primarily as intensive document verification and validation exercises, the physical file a teacher brings before the panel dictates their ultimate success.

Among the mandatory compliance documents, the Teacher Performance Appraisal and Development (TPAD) reports for the last three consecutive operational years hold immense weight [cite: ]. Panels interrogate these metrics to evaluate instructional consistency, lesson planning, and learner outcome trends.

Because the digital architecture of the TPAD portal archives previous operational cycles, retrieving records requires navigating past security warnings to access historical data files. Execute this workflow meticulously for each target year:

• Log in to your TPAD account via the official portal (tpad2.tsc.go.ke) using your credentials.
• Navigate to appraisals by selecting APPRAISALS from the main dashboard, then clicking on SELF APPRAISAL.
• Access the archive by clicking VIEW ARCHIVED APPRAISAL.
• Bypass browser security alerts when the system triggers a warning prompt. Click ADVANCED, followed by PROCEED (ignoring the ‘Unsafe’ text flag, which is standard for internal governmental SSL certificate architectures).
• Locate individual term reports by clicking the VIEW APPRAISAL tab positioned on the far right of each specific term appraisal row.
• Generate physical copies by pressing CTRL+P on your computer keyboard to print out each term’s page directly.
• Calculate annual averages by extracting the terminal scores for each year to determine the composite annual performance average required for the promotion portal application data entry fields.
• Endorse documents by taking your printed report sets to your Head of Institution (HOI) for official official stamping and signing.

Beyond your TPAD history, the physical interview file must be meticulously structured, sequentially paginated, and officially certified where applicable.

Mastering the Interview Panel Presentation

When facing the panel, organization is your strongest ally. Arrange your file using colored dividers matching the categories outlined above. Ensure that your TPAD averages match precisely what was keyed into the online application platform. Keep your professional engagement testimonials and certificates of merit near the back to close your presentation with a strong emphasis on holistic institutional contribution. Approach the verification table with confidence, knowing your paperwork reflects a complete, uncompromised record of educational excellence.
