Teachers Service Commission (TSC) has announced the extension of recruitment applications amid technical failures that have been reported on the commission’s portal.

The commission through its official X account on Tuesday, October 8, 2024, announced that the recruitment application had been extended to Tuesday, October 8, 2024, at midnight.

“The Commission has extended the deadline for application for recruitment to 8th October 2024 at midnight,” TSC announced.

Thousands of trained teachers across the country had recorded frustration and disappointment as they struggled to apply for the 46,000 teaching positions advertised by TSC.

The initial deadline as per the TSC advertisement was Monday, October 7, 2024. However, many teachers felt locked out of an opportunity they had long waited for.

TSc technical challenges

The TSC system failed to send the One-Time Password (OTP) necessary for completing the applications.

TSC had earlier acknowledged these challenges while addressing the issue through social media, promising to do their best to solve the witnessed issues.

“We regret to inform you that we are currently experiencing technical challenges affecting the teacher recruitment portal. We apologize for the inconvenience this has caused and kindly request your patience as we work diligently to restore the portal as soon as possible,” the commission tweeted.

The recruitment process was announced to fill 39,550 vacancies in Junior Secondary Schools (JSS), 6,000 in primary, and 450 in secondary schools.

“The Teachers Service Commission invites applications to fill 46,000 vacancies for qualified teachers on permanent and pensionable terms of service. The available posts are as follows: 6,000 posts for primary schools, 39, 550 posts for junior schools, and 450 posts for secondary schools,” TSC announced.

“Interested and qualified candidates should submit their applications online through the Teachers Service Commission’s website, www.tsc.go.ke, under ‘Careers’ or teachersonline.tsc.go.ke, not later than 7th October 2024, at midnight,” TSC added.
