The Teachers Service Commission (TSC) has ordered principals and their deputies to live in the schools where they work.

TSC also directed boarding administrators and other key administrative staff to be living in their school compounds. These are part of resolutions TSC reached with the Kenya Secondary School Heads Association (KESSHA) as cases of school fires continued to be reported.
