The Teachers Service Commission has defended the delocolisation of teachers ,saying that it is not meant to punish teachers but aims to promote national cohesion.
Appearing before the Senate Committee on Education, TSC CEO Nancy Macharia acknowledged that the transfers had some flaws at beginning but the agency has since fixed some.
"Delocolisation is simply a transfer; we want to ensure that teachers do not teach in their locality for their entire teaching life but are exposed to other cultures," Mrs Macharia said.
The CEO said Primary school teachers are transferred from one sub-county to another within the same county or near their home counties.
"Secondary school teachers who are transferred to other counties are those who have been promoted to senior positions which they applied for." She said.
