Areas Cherished to support Education Kenya.
Welcome to my website http://www.educationmattersnews.co.ke
In several places, teaching is regarded as a lowly profession. Even when professions are given priority, teaching is not well valued in these places. Usually, teaching is mentioned as such people’s last career. This has caused many to abandon teaching in favour of other, more well-respected, lucrative, and fulfilling careers.
It is stated that teaching is a low status job with occasionally difficult working circumstances. There are instances when a large class size puts pressure on teachers. Teaching in impoverished regions, slums, and rural areas does not provide the finest working conditions for educators in developing nations.
Housing Levy
House levy deductions from TSC.Teacher incomes are negatively impacted by the new home levy; educationhub.co.ke will keep you updated on the latest developments about the effects of the house levy, which will take effect in July 2023.
Employers are not required to contribute any money towards the new housing fee; employees must donate 1.5% of their monthly gross salary.
Low Salary
There isn’t a compelling case against paying teachers more. Governments may find it simple to decrease teacher wages during hard times because they represent the largest single expense in education.
Teachers have voiced their displeasure with educational reforms that have avoided increasing pay. Recently, reforms have been announced to ensure that teachers feel more supported and valued for their work in response to the country’s declining education standards, which have been attributed to teachers’ protests against their low pay.
These specifics can be found in a labour dispute that the instructors Service Commission (TSC) hired 30,550 JSS instructors to work as interns.
The interns were given contracts by TSC to teach two topics. They eventually taught everything, including maths and science, nevertheless.
No resources
A report demonstrates that the competency-based curriculum’s implementation is being hampered by a lack of qualified teachers and subpar instructional resources.
The implementation of CBC is being hampered by inadequate infrastructure brought on by exceptionally high enrollment in pre-primary and primary institutions.
Wilson Sossion, the secretary general, objected that teachers had not received enough training on the new curriculum and demanded that it be shelved until all instructors had received the required training and schools had been furnished with textbooks and other supplies.
Late Capitation
Some schools were forced by late capitation to shift the cost to parents who are already struggling to make ends meet, but education must function smoothly.
The Presidential Working Party on Education Reforms and Knut have both suggested raising capitation. Regretfully, there are mounting worries that the government would break its word and stop sending in capitation, putting parents and school administrators at odds over tuition increases.
Since education is arguably the most important area of society and the foundation for everything else, the government must act morally and provide resources for it.
Incompetent Teachers
It is currently becoming known that a teacher who spent an entire year teaching in junior secondary school (JSS) was incompetent in that subject.
