The High Court dismissed TSC’s application to lift orders suspending a circular regulating teachers’ social media conduct.
The High Court has dealt a blow to the Teachers Service Commission (TSC) after dismissing its application seeking to lift conservatory orders suspending the implementation of a circular regulating teachers’ conduct on social media.
In its ruling, the court upheld the existing orders, finding that the petitioner Fredrick Ochieng Oduor had established a prima facie case that the circular was vague, restrictive and could violate teachers’ constitutional right to freedom of expression.
