About the job

The Teachers Service Commission is hiring 5,609 primary school teachers on permanent and pensionable terms for the 2026/2027 financial year, to replace teachers who left through retirement, resignation and other natural attrition. The posts are part of a national call for 7,720 teachers, broken down by county and sub-county on the TSC website. Successful candidates may be posted anywhere in Kenya, and preference goes to applicants never before employed by TSC. The merit lists may be used for later recruitment within the year.

  • Take part in school co-curricular and pastoral duties

Qualifications

  • Registered with the Teachers Service Commission
  • P1 certificate or higher
  • Willing to be posted anywhere in the country
  • Original academic and professional certificates for verification

How to apply

Apply online only on the TSC teachers' portal; submit a single application form (more than one leads to disqualification). Keep your TSC registration number and original academic and professional certificates ready for shortlisting. Applications are free. Closing date: 23 November 2026, midnight.
