Principals Call TSC to Review 5-Year Pre-Transfer Period for Teachers
To better accommodate newly hired teachers with families, Indimuli has requested the Teachers Service Commission (TSC) to reduce the mandatory five-year pre-transfer period to two years.
He also voiced his displeasure with the interference of politicians in the transfer of teachers and their ability to affect who moves and who stays in their positions.
He said some politicians were seeking to transfer teachers who hadn’t asked to be moved despite the fact that they had no choice in the matter.
He said he would expose the politicians who were seeking to get instructors transferred because of their personal biases.
Indimuli argued that politicians should not harass teachers who have not requested a transfer since “as teachers, we have been employed to work anywhere in this country.”
Melly, on the other hand, refuted charges that MPs were usurping the TSC’s job of transferring teachers by stating that the lawmakers were only assisting staffing of teachers, particularly in regions of high demand.
“Members of Parliament are not usurping TSC role. We complement and assist in management and staffing of the schools by giving solutions to schools,” said Melly.
