TSC warned over July CBA recovery paid to wrong school administrators

This means that many teachers have for the last three years erroneously benefited from higher pay as data elevated them to higher job groups. In fresh instructions to the directors three years later, Macharia now wants new accurate data to reward the right teachers.

She said in the data presented to TSC, some ordinary classroom teachers were presented as belonging to higher grades exclusively reserved for institutional administrators.Also, some serving as deputy or senior teachers were wrongly captured as headteachers.

This means that many teachers have for the last three years erroneously benefited from higher pay as data elevated them to higher job groups.In fresh instructions to the directors three years later, Macharia now wants new accurate data to reward the right teachers.

“You are required to carefully study the list and identify teachers who are not correctly placed or are not performing administrative functions yet their names appear as such in the data base,” said Macharia.

What has caused panic is the directive that teachers wrongly elevated to higher grades be captured in a separate sheet and their details entered in a template matrix attached for processing.

Sources said this means TSC is set to recover all the CBA money irregularly paid to the undeserving teachers.In a letter dated June 17, Misori faults TSC for not involving the union when compiling data.

“The union made repeated requests between 2017 and 2019 to be supplied with copies of the implementation schedule for the CBA’s four phases. These requests were ignored,” said Misori. He said that had TSC heeded to the requests, inaccurate and misleading data would not have been generated.
