Kenya Bill Would Strike Teachers Off Register for Sexually Exploiting Learners

What happened

The Teachers Service Commission (Amendment) Bill, 2026 proposes deregistration for teachers who trade grades, fees or gifts for sexual favours. It also covers romantic relationships with learners, pornography and supplying illicit drugs.

Why it may matter

• Approved, so it is now going ahead rather than being proposed.
• Affects students in Kenya.
