Transfer requests are normally considered for approval by the Appointment Board, once, at the end of the year. However, the Commission can transfer a teacher at its discretion.

A teacher wishing to be considered for transfer should do so by:

Filling in a transfer application form through the head of institution. Transfer forms are available at TSC offices countrywide or can be downloaded from TSC website.
Completed application forms should be sent to the TSC or its agents by the head of institution.
Transfers for primary school teachers within the county will be handled by the TSC County Director.
