The Ministry of Education is now in the process of onboarding trainers from the Technical Vocational and Educational Training Institutions TVETs to bridge the gap in teachers for Technical subjects in Senior Secondary Schools.

This remark was made by Cabinet Secretary for Education Julius Ogamba on Monday during the quarterly meeting of Principals and chairpersons of Technical Training Institutions at the Kenya School of TVET. The CS confirmed that consultations are ongoing with the teachers’ employer, the Teachers Service Commission TSC to ensure the same happens.

CS Ogamba admitted that there was indeed a lack of teachers and that there are ongoing plans to onboard some trainers from the Kenya School of TVET.
