TSC replacement news 2023.In September 2023, the Teachers Service Commission (TSC) took a proactive step to address the shortage of teachers in Kenyan schools.
This shortage was primarily caused by the 100% transition program initiated by former President Uhuru Kenyatta, which led to vacant teaching positions and posed challenges for schools’ progress and policy implementation.

Moreover, the commission intends to publish a comprehensive list of available positions, detailing the schools and subject combinations required. It’s important to note that successful applicants may be assigned to serve anywhere in Kenya, broadening the reach of educators.
The teacher shortage is substantial, with approximately 38,054 teachers needed in elementary schools and a more severe deficit of 58,291 instructors in post-primary institutions due to the transition from primary schools.
In total, the TSC believes there is a teacher deficit of roughly 96,000 in Kenyan schools.
Technical and Vocational Education Training Colleges are also facing a shortage of around 5,000 teachers due to their size.
The government is actively working on a plan to increase the number of teachers in all public schools, creating a more favorable work environment for educators nationwide.
For educators looking to apply for these replacement vacancies, all open teaching positions will be posted on the official TSC website for easy access and reference during the application process.
In summary, the TSC’s commitment to addressing the teacher shortage in Kenya is a significant step toward ensuring a brighter future for students and enhancing the quality of education nationwide.
This initiative is set to bridge the gap and provide teachers with opportunities to contribute to the country’s educational system.
