ECED Teachers' degrading wages
But SRC is proposing that an ECDE teacher should be paid KSh. 7,000 per month. What's the basis of making such a humiliating and insulting recommendation?
Why devalue the work of those teachers to an extent of suggesting they be paid below the minimum wage? Are they slaves? Is this how we value the lives of the little ones?
EDIT: The SRC Commissioner's self-declared salaries and allowances from their own website
The true position is as follows: the SRC Commissioners, just like other State Officers, are on a consolidated pay of Ksh 765,188 for the Chairperson, and Ksh 650,000 for members of the Commission as published in the Kenya Gazette Vol. CXIX-No 89, Gazette Notice No. 6519 of July 2017. The Commission operates on a full time basis, thus the Commissioners are not entitled to and are not paid any sitting allowance.
