Negotiations for the 2025-2029 Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA) between KNUT and TSC have reached a standstill after the seven day ultimatum issued by KNUT on 1st July 2025 expired on 8th July 2025 without TSC presenting a formal counter offer.

The Teachers Service Commission (TSC) has started deploying 2,014 newly recruited teachers to fill vacancies arising from natural attrition across the country.

According to KNUT Deputy Secretary General Hesbon Otieno, the current CBA is set to expire on June 30, and teachers are ready to negotiate for better terms of service in the new agreement.

In 2025, the government’s capitation disbursement plan was structured to release funds in clusters: 50 percent in the first term, 30 percent in the second term, and the remaining 20 percent in the third term.

Calls Grow for TSC to Employ Teachers Graduated Over a Decade Ago. According KNUT, it is deeply unfair that such dedicated individuals remain unemployed even after more than ten years of graduation.

The Kenya National Union of Teachers (KNUT) has strongly criticized Education Cabinet Secretary Julius Migos, accusing him of spreading misinformation about the distribution of capitation funds to public schools.
