HOW TO APPROVE A NEW TEACHER TO TPAD (TEACHER PERFORMANCE APPRAISAL AND DEVELOPMENT) portal

requirements

This is what you need to know;

1. The new teacher must be a T.S.C (Teachers Service Commission) employee, all T.S.C employees have T.S.C numbers.
2. The new teacher must first be uploaded to the portal, this means that the new teacher must be made available in the TPAD portal.
   By who?
   To upload teachers to the TPAD portal, is a task mandated legally to the T.S.C secretariat. In this case, the work is done at T.S.C headquarters in Nairobi.
3. There are only three offices mandated in the grassroots level to approve new teachers to the TPAD portal namely:
   1. The office of the county or sub-county office;
      can approve all teachers, however they are mandated to approve principals only within their county's and sub-counties of administration.
   2. The office of the head teacher;
      can approve deputy head teacher, H.O.Ds and all other teacher within the same school system
   3. The office of the deputy head teacher;
      has the same access level as the head teacher, can approve fellow deputy head teacher, H.O.Ds and all other teacher within the same school system
4. You need a computing device such as a smartphone or a computer, you also need internet access.
