The Kenya Union of Post-Primary Education Teachers (KUPPET) has criticised the Teachers Service Commission (TSC) for what it terms as unfair promotion of teachers.
Addressing the residents of Vihiga on Friday, March 21, KUPPET National Chairperson Omboko Milemba accused the Commission of bias in the formula used in the promotions.
While venting frustrations over the process, Milemba called on TSC to immediately halt the promotions, further faulting the Commission for allegedly promoting newly hired teachers over the long-serving ones.
The KUPPET boss went ahead to question the criteria used in the promotion and revealed that some teachers spent up to seven years in a single job grade without an advancement.
