These teachers were to apply online by 18th March 2024.
TSC announced that successful teachers will start getting their posting letters to serve in junior secondary school section early next term. The Commission asked teachers who are qualified to apply for the deployment by 18th March, 2024.
As a result, the Primary School teachers applied to be deployed to JSS and who are qualified to teach in secondary schools will get their deployment letters.
Inorder for the salary payment for the deployed teachers to be hastened , Sub County Directors and Primary Headteachers releasing and receiving the teachers must act immediately the teacher is given their deployment letter.
The County Directors are expected to initiate posting Posting and the Entry or Exit Reports Module to the Sub-County. The TSC Sub-County Director of will then do the posting of the P1 teachers with letters to JSS .
