Dr Macharia said the commission recognises teachers’ unions as key stakeholders in the profession.

The Kenya National Union of Teachers (Knut) has embarked on an aggressive campaign to win back more than 86,000 teachers who left the union following its row with the Teachers Service Commission (TSC).
The 11-member National Steering Committee, led by Secretary-General Wilson Sossion, seeks to woo back teachers across the country after TSC on November 4 gave the union two months to increase its membership, or else the commission would revoke the agreement recognising it.
