Rude shock for Head Teachers and School Principal as many don’t qualify to head schools

6th December, 2017

Headteachers and principals will not serve in the same school for more than nine years.

This is according to new regulations released yesterday and set to be implemented by the Teachers Service Commission (TSC).

The guidelines add to at least 10 measures to reform the education sector, which will witness a radical shift starting January when the new curriculum takes effect.

The regulations further say school managers will not be employed in their native areas of origin.

School heads and deputy schools heads will be required to be holders of a Bachelor of Education degree while principals and deputy principals must possess a Masters degree.

TSC Chief Executive Nancy Macharia told a meeting of head teachers in Mombasa the policy aims to improve administration in schools.

“Through this new move, we will not be allowing head teachers and principals to serve in their home counties or be in one school for more than nine years,” said Macharia.

It is not clear when the new guidelines would be implemented.
