The commission said the announcement follows the extension of the school-based Teacher Support System (SBTSS) to junior schools and Diploma Secondary Teachers Training Colleges (DSTTCs) under the Secondary Education Equity and Quality Improvement Program (SEEQIP).

The initiative, previously implemented under the Secondary Education Quality Improvement Project (SEQIP) from 2017 to 2024, aims to enhance teachers’ pedagogical skills and subject content mastery.

It will be implemented in all 47 counties, including camp-based schools in refugee camps in Garissa and Turkana.
