A petition has been filed in the National Assembly, decrying alleged discrimination against secondary school deputy principals in career progression by the Teachers Service Commission (TSC).
Speaker of the National Assembly, Moses Wetang’ula, said his office has received a petition from Maurice Otieno Ouma and Paul Juma Were, together with 14 others, on behalf of affected deputy principals in the country, accusing TSC of discriminating against secondary school deputy principals in promotions.
He said the petitioners are concerned that they have made several efforts to have their grievances addressed by TSC to no avail and have sought the intervention of Parliament to, among other issues, make inquiries into the matter and recommend appropriate mechanisms for solving the impasse for the benefit of affected teachers, in particular Deputy Principals.
