TSC Deregisters 23 Teachers in Fresh Operation
In the wake of many disciplinary cases, the Teachers Service Commission (TSC) deregistered 23 teachers.The TSC CEO, Nancy Macharia, announced in a notification that teachers had been found guilty of the charges brought against them.
However, Macharia omitted a list of the specific accusations the professors were facing. The TSC number, case number, teacher’s name, and removal date were all listed by the Commission.
“In exercise of powers conferred by section 30 (1) (e) of the Teachers Service Commission Act, the commission wishes to notify the public that the persons whose names are specified in the Schedule herein below have been removed from the Register of Teachers pursuant to the provision of section 30 (2) of the Teachers Service Commission Act,” the notice begins.
The Teachers Service Commission Act’s Section 23, which outlines the procedures for removing tutors from the Register, was followed in carrying out the dismissals.
According to the law, a teacher whose name is removed from the Register will not be reinstated except by the direction of the Commission.Further, the teacher shall cease to tutor or assist in teaching in any institution.
“A person shall not engage in the teaching service unless such a person is registered as a teacher under this Act,” read part of the statement.”A teacher whose name has been removed from the register shall cease to be a teacher for purposes of this Act with effect from the date of such removal.”
“A person shall not engage in the teaching service unless such a person is registered as a teacher under this Act.”Employing a deregistered teacher is illegal and carries a minimum fine of Ksh100,000, a maximum sentence of two years in prison, or both possible punishments. Over 100 teachers who had committed various offenses were deregistered by TSC in 2022.
