KUPPET Calls Off Teachers’ Strike After Meeting With TSC

The Kenya Union of Post-Primary Education Teachers (KUPPET) has called off the teachers’ strike following a consultative meeting with the Teachers Service Commission (TSC).

Addressing the press, KUPPET’s Secretary General Akelo Misori noted that the strike was suspended after entering a tentative agreement with the TSC.

As a result, he directed teachers registered under the union to resume duties immediately as they iron out the issues they had raised.

“In the ensuing arrangement and in compliance with the court order which is coming up on September 5, Thursday, from the union side, we suspend our strike and ask all our teachers to go back to class pending the speedy resolutions of these matters as already agreed upon between us and the commission,” he stated.
