The teachers’ employer says it has released July with an increase that was agreed upon last year.
Teachers Service Commission on Friday said the money would be in teachers’ bank accounts on Saturday.
156,000
Head of Communication Kamotho Kihumba said salary raise for 156,000 teachers in lower cadre would be paid in two phases while the rest of the teaching staff would be paid in four phases.
“The salaries for all the 312,060 teachers have now been converted to the new grading structure and individually placed on respective pay points,” Mr Kihumba said in a statement.
In addition to the new salary structure, he said, teachers would continue drawing all the applicable allowances.
The new salary deal that was signed last year will run up to 2021 and will cost taxpayers Sh54 billions.
The pay come days after teachers raised concerns over delays in their pay slips.
Last month, the teaching staff got their salary statement as early as mid June.
