Kenya National Union of Teachers (KNUT) Kitui branch Executive Secretary Simon Mutunga Nding’o has disclosed that the county was allocated 108 slots in the current recruitment exercise for 30,000 teachers by the Teachers Service Commission (TSC).
From the number, 85 are intern teachers while 23 are employed on permanent and pensionable terms.
KNUT Kitui branch Chairman Samuel Kathinuku thanked the government for employing more teachers but noted that the number isn’t enough.
He thanked all the teachers in the County for the good performance in the 2022 national exams and asked for their support to revive the giant union.
Kathinuku also lauded the government’s move to domicile JSS in primary schools.
Kitui County Trade, Industry and Cooperatives Development Deputy Director Francis Mutuku asked primary school heads to ensure the Competence Based Curriculum (CBC) succeeds.
