Inside TSC’s July Salary Increment Analysis for each job group.

Teachers will only be eligible for the TSC July Salary Increment if they were engaged before July 1, 2023, even if they anticipate that the phase 2 compensation increment will be fully implemented by July 2024.

While rates in the other three clusters stay the same, cluster 4 teachers will see changes to their housing allowance.

According to rules established by the Teachers Service Commission (TSC), the postponed phase 2 salary increase will begin on July 1st, 2024.

In order to enable qualifying teacher categories under the TSC make more money and keep up with the rising cost of living, the aforementioned pay increase was implemented.

According to Honorable Ndindi Nyorou, the Member of Parliament for Kiharu, the key indicators for the passage of the Phase 2 Increment have disclosed the plan for the second phase of the pay review subsequent to the declaration of the budget allocations for 2024–2025.

This national budget indicates a promising future for educators with regard to the implementation of the agreements struck between the Teacher Service Commission (TSC) and several teachers’ unions.

The Teacher Service Commission is anticipated to receive a sizable amount of the Sh 369.94 billion budget allocated for the education sector as part of the 2021–2025 Collective Bargaining Agreements (CBAs).

The first phase is currently in operation and runs from July 1, 2023, to June 30, 2024.

The last and next phase, which will be exciting for educators, is now scheduled to take place from July 1, 2024, to June 30, 2025.

Instructors should anticipate salary increases in line with the second phase’s suggested structure.

The municipalities of Mombasa, Kisumu, Nakuru Cities, Nyeri, Eldoret town, Thika, Kisii town, Malindi, and Kitale are included in Cluster 2, while Nairobi City is included in Cluster 1.

Cluster 3 consists of the other defunct municipalities.
