A new draft law in Kenya, the Teachers Service Commission (Amendment Bill), 2025, aims to grant the Teachers Service Commission (TSC) greater disciplinary powers over teachers, particularly concerning sexual exploitation of learners and other forms of misconduct. This bill introduces new offenses and expands the definition of serious offenses to include acts that "grossly offend public policy and interest."

• Teachers found guilty of sexual misconduct with learners face de-registration.
• The bill empowers TSC to take administrative action against various transgressions including charging unauthorized fees and chronic absenteeism.
• The draft categorizes offenses under: immoral behavior with a learner, professional misconduct, and infamous conduct.
• TSC Commission Chairman Jamleck Muturi and the Education Committee of the National Assembly deliberated on the bill.
• The bill was not among seven others approved by the Cabinet on February 10, 2026.
