I'm made to understand that JSS teachers are going through untold suffering, starting with the kind of environment in which they were posted.
JSS Teacher who graduated in 2015, then posted as an intern this year (2023 February), TSC has said they won't be absorbed on a permanent and pensionable basis until 2025.
Sources intimate to me have confirmed that MPs are dishing out TSC letters randomly to their friends, children, and relatives. For instance, a teacher who graduated in 2022 or 2023 and has been given a TSC letter by a member of Parliament is currently in senior secondary, while the other fellow is in primary. The same teacher posted on permanent and pensionable to senior secondary enjoys free meals from the institutions, enough resources for teaching and learning, etc., while the counterpart in primary pays every month for meals, with a salary from TSC of KES 17,000 only after deductions from the government.
Again, JSS interns haven't been paid by TSC.
Hello Cyprian please post this to the public regarding mistreatment of Intern teacher the downfall of Jss and CBC thing.I am A jss intern teacher, on behalf of many suffering intern teachers. This year February we entered in internship agreement with tsc with agreement of cornfirmation before July 2023. And the contract is expiring on Dec. Now the story has changed, that we have to serve for 2 yrs with 17k for us to be cornfirmed
,we were not allowed to apply the previous highschool post because we are jss teacher with a notion that we will be cornfirmed before January. Please we believe in your leadership, we believe if you air our grievances something will be done .come to our rescue, how do we go about this? How do we survive with 17k in the interior parts of Isiolo. Its painful. TSc has turned to man eaters , they are happy seeing Teachers suffering. The president is allover yapping how he has employed 56k Teachers, is internship employment? Who will sanitize The ministry, Tsc, of the President and our employer are stage managers of our downfall. Let them know wako kwa Ofisi tuko ground. A dissapointed,demoralised, demotivated and poorly remunerated teacher can not implement CBC. Children will suffer and parents should know.
Urgent attention is needed from relevant authorities to rectify this situation, offering JSS teachers fair compensation and motivation to continue their invaluable contribution to the nation's educational foundation.
Junior Secondary School (JSS) teachers find themselves grappling with inadequate salaries that are further eroded by deductions for house levy, NSSF, and NHIF.
To exacerbate matters, the government has failed to implement any salary increments, leaving these educators disheartened. This concerning trend not only affects their financial stability but also impacts the quality of education they can provide.
