TSC fires 33 teachers, publishes names in Kenya gazette

The Teachers Service Commission (TSC) on Friday announced that it had revoked the appointment of 33 teachers across the country.

The Commission published the names of the 33 affected tutors, a list which is accessible via the Gazette Notice number 9587 released on August 2.

TSC Chief Executive Officer Nancy Macharia, who signed the notice, indicated that the revocation followed disciplinary hearings the tutors were subjected to.

According to TSC Act Section 30, a teacher can be removed from the register as a result of disciplinary proceedings.

Other causes for removal include obtaining registration through fraudulent means, the conviction of a sexual offence, conviction of a criminal offence, and physical or mental illness rendering the teacher incapable of performing duties.

In the Gazette Notice, Macharia directed that if a teacher’s name is deregistered, it can only be reinstated by direction of the Commission.

Also, a teacher whose name has been removed from the register shall cease to be a teacher immediately and shall subsequently not engage in the teaching service.
