The Teachers Service Commission (TSC) has recalled all field officers and teachers on leave from October to help prepare and administer the Kenya Certificate of Secondary Schools Education (KCSE) and the Kenya Primary School Education. Assessment (KPSEA) examinations.
TSC Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Nancy Macharia noted that all staff must report to their stations by October 16.
“I wish to commit that the TSC and all its staff and teachers will give the upcoming national examinations our full support to ensure that this is a massive success,” she said.
Macharia revealed that TSC has vetted 223,223 teachers who will serve as supervisors and invigilators, while 37,731 will perform the role of examiners.
She said that during the first week of October, the Kenya National Examinations Council (KNEC) will hold sub-county briefing sessions nationwide, inviting all 71,760 center managers to participate.

She added that center managers would ensure that no examination protocols would be compromised during the double collection of morning and afternoon session papers.
“No supervisor or invigilator is retained in the centre they served during last year’s national examinations to ensure annual rotation of staff,” she said.
She noted that only center and deputy center managers must be in school during the examinations.
“As a Commission, we wish to thank all teachers profusely for the excellent work they continued to do to ensure all candidates are fully prepared and are ready for the upcoming national examinations.”
