The Kenyan government has announced a nationwide promotion exercise for thousands of teachers, allocating Ksh1 billion for the initiative. This comes as many educators have remained in the same job groups for years, with the Teachers Service Commission (TSC) set to prioritize those most affected.

• Promotions will benefit thousands of teachers, with Ksh1 billion allocated for the exercise.
• The Principal Secretary for Education, Julius Bitok, announced the promotion drive, which will be spearheaded by the Teachers Service Commission (TSC).
• Additionally, the government plans to enroll all teachers under the Universal Health Coverage (UHC) plan and will construct 1,600 science laboratories in junior secondary schools.
