The commission said the approach involves a multi-agency team made up of key government institutions, including the security agencies.
The statement came a day after the commission issued an earlier update on January 26, 2026.
In the new message, TSC clarified that the security of teachers is not only a concern in Garissa but across the entire country.
This is because teachers often work in areas that may face security challenges, and the commission wants to ensure that all educators feel safe while performing their duties.
“Further to the statement issued by the Commission on 26th January, 2026, the Commission wishes to inform the public as follows: The issue of the security and safety of teachers not just in Garissa County but the entire country is now being handled within the framework of a multi-agency team comprising key government institutions, including the security agencies,” the commission stated.
TSC did not provide detailed information on the exact measures being taken by the team, but the message made it clear that the response is now organised and involves several government bodies working together.
This approach is expected to improve communication, planning, and action when threats to teachers arise.
The commission’s statement was meant to reassure teachers who may feel anxious or unsafe, especially in areas with a history of insecurity.
Teachers play a crucial role in society, and TSC said it is committed to ensuring that they can carry out their work without fear of harm.
The Garissa incident has raised serious concerns among educators, parents, and the public.
Many people have called for stronger protection measures for teachers, especially in regions where security challenges are common.
The killing of a teacher has also highlighted the risks that educators face while trying to provide education to children.
TSC’s update signals that the government is taking the matter seriously and is moving beyond words to action.
The multi-agency framework suggests that security will now be handled in a more organised manner, with clear roles for different institutions.
This could include faster responses to threats, better protection planning for schools, and improved support for teachers in dangerous areas.
