Candidates can now apply via the KUCCPS site if they wish to enrol in Teacher Training Colleges (TTCs) and pursue the Diploma in Primary Teacher Education (DPTE) and Diploma in Early Childhood Teacher Education (DECTE) programmes.
For candidates who took the KCSE exams between 2020 and 2022, the Kenya University and Colleges Central Placement Service (KUCCPS) has created a portal for online applications.
Both the DPTE and the DECTE entry grade have been updated. A mean grade of C (plain) and Ksh 1,500, which will be paid via Mpesa to KUCCPS, are the only requirements for application.
On the KUCCPS portal, the application deadline is July 28, 2023. For an application on KUCCPS, go here.
At first, candidates had to receive at least a C (plain) in the subject clusters, however that requirement has since been lifted.
As long as a candidate has a mean grade of C (plain), they are eligible to enter a course to study teaching and the five subject requirement will no longer be used to place them into TTC.
