Kenya’s teachers will enjoy salary increments of up to 67 per cent from next month as the government implements a pact signed with their union early this year.
They will receive increases of between Sh1,426 for the lowest paid teacher (P2) and Sh30,112 for the highest paid tutor (chief principal) in the first of a three-phase programme.
The Teachers Service Commission (TSC) also announced impending increases in perks that will see chief principals in Nairobi get a housing allowance of Sh40,000.
Allocations for the huge salary increase were contained in the budget speech delivered to Parliament by Finance minister Uhuru Kenyatta on Thursday.
Honestly teachers deserve this. There was a time being a teacher was the sh***. A teacher was highly respected and had certain status in the village.
