More than 39,000 registered teachers aged 45 and above remain unemployed by the Teachers Service Commission (TSC) despite a 2019 court ruling declaring age-based hiring restrictions unconstitutional.
Teachers Service Commission (TSC) Acting Chief Executive Officer Eveleen Mitei told the National Assembly Education Committee on Wednesday, July 9, that as of June, the Commission had 39,017 registered teachers over 45 who were not employed.
