"content": "aware that many teachers that are facing this problem are happy that the Hon. Members of the Thirteenth Parliament are able to debate and check on their issues on the Floor. Besides the issue of salaries and other allowances, there is also another arising matter that the TSC is given power to transfer them. I think this, to some extent, affects the way teachers perform. I also support that this policy needs to be relooked at. Let teachers be involved. The TSC should not just sit in its office in Nairobi; they should go to the ground and see what teachers are going through. Last week, I was in a tour in one of the wards in my constituency and I visited three schools, and I can tell you that no school has a staff quarter. Teachers are forced to travel four to five kilometres to attend school. Having suffered this way, and then you take them to other places. In order for education to be what it is, and in order for us to have the best, let us allow teachers to stay where they are. Let them be given a peace of mind so that they can be able to deliver. With those remarks, I support the Motion."
