The Teachers Service Commission (TSC) set the Teachers Performance Appraisal and Development (TPAD) deadline on the 23^rd of July 2021, a week after schools closed for the ongoing one-week holiday.

According to a trusted source, there are still some teachers who do not complete filling TPAD and have never seen punishment imposed on them.

TSC directed teachers to complete the filling and submission of TPAD ratings for the third term of the 2020 academic year by the 23^rd of July 2021.

The same applied to the Performance Contract (PC) forms for the third term for Heads of Schools.

The schools’ academic calendar had to be rescheduled following the prolonged closure of all learning institutions till October last year. The government closed all learning institutions in March last year after the first case of the novel COVID-19 pandemic was reported in the country.

At the moment teachers are racing against time and a slower TPAD system as many teachers are rushing to complete the exercise by tomorrow so as to meet the deadline.
