TSC New Designation Codes & Titles For Teachers. In 2016, a job evaluation of Kenyan public school teachers was conducted by the then-salaries and renumeration commission. As a result, the Teachers Service Commission and the teachers’ unions signed a new Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA). It increased teacher wages and eliminated work groups.
For every type of instructors in elementary and secondary schools, the TSC subsequently developed new job groups and designation codes.
The elementary and secondary school designation codes, along with their updated TSC scales and titles, are included in this blog post.
